Method
- Heat 1 tbsp oil in a frying pan over a low heat and fry the onion for 5 mins. Stir in the dried herbs and chillies (if using) and cook for 2 mins. Transfer to a bowl and add the beans, breadcrumbs, potato and parsley. Mix well, then lightly dampen your hands and shape the mixture into 4 equal patties. Transfer to a plate lined with kitchen paper and chill in the fridge for 10 mins.
- Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C and line a baking sheet with nonstick baking paper. Transfer the burgers to the sheet, brush with the remaining oil and bake for 20 mins or until piping hot.
- Top each burger with cheese; return to the oven for 3 mins or until melted. Serve in the rolls with the pickle, lettuce and tomato, and chips alongside, if you like.
