Slimming World's burger and chips is a guilt-free version of this pub classic, a perfect family dinner that everyone will enjoy.

This is one of our favourite Slimming World recipes, - easy to make and so cheering, you really won't feel like you're eating healthy food at all. The burger is made with extra lean beef, with onions, garlic and a dash of Worcestershire sauce to add a kick of flavour. Just like a pub lunch version, it's served with crispy bacon and melted cheese, and a portion of crips and delicious oven-baked chips. These chips are one of the secret weapons of the Slimming World eating plan - they go with almost everything and they are complete syn-free

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C/fan 180°C/gas 6. Cook the chips in a large saucepan of lightly salted boiling water over high heat for 5 minutes. Drain, return to the saucepan, and shake to rough up the edges.
  2. Spray a baking sheet with low-calorie cooking spray. Transfer the chips to the tray, spray lightly with low-calorie cooking spray and cook in the oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown on all sides, turning occasionally.
  3. Meanwhile, put the onion, garlic, beef and Worcestershire sauce in a bowl, season to taste and combine using your fingers. Divide the mixture into four portions and shape each one into a burger.
  4. Put the burgers on the grill pan, spray with low-calorie cooking spray and grill for 10-12 minutes or until cooked through, turning once.
  5. Grill the bacon alongside the burgers until done to your liking, and top the burgers with the cheese for the last 2 minutes of the cooking time to melt.
  6. Fill each roll with tomato, lettuce, cucumber, two bacon rashers, a burger, and 1 tbsp passata. Serve hot with the chips and salad.

Top tips for making Slimming World’s burger and chips

Flipping your homemade burger more frequently during their cook time actually encourages faster, more even internal cooking, and can shave off as much as one-third of your grill time.

If you want to make the chips more quickly, you can swap them for skin on wedges so there's no need to peel them. Cut the potatoes in half along the widest point, to give you the widest, flattest halves. Then cut each half into 3-4 wedges.
