The Burger

​

1. Cut the Halloumi in the middle length ways so it’s in two pieces. 

2. Slice the mushrooms length ways (slices do not have to be even).

3. In a pan put in a tablespoon of olive oil, place halloumi on a low heat  (be mindful to lower the heat as the oil spit). 

4. Allow it to cook roughly 4 minutes each side (or to your preference). 

5. In another pan place butter and allow it heat and melt. Add finely chopped garlic and chilli. Then add mushrooms. Tilt pan to one side, then get a spoon and scoop the butter up and pour over the mushrooms so it covers it evenly.

6. Cut the brioche buns in half then on one side of the pan place downwards for 1 minute.
