Instructions
Before you start
- Preheat the oven to 220 °C or 210 °C fan bake. Line an oven tray with baking paper.
Make chips
- Slice the unpeeled 800 g potatoes into chips and toss them on the prepared oven tray with 1 tbsp olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and cook for 20-25 minutes, until tender. Turn once during cooking.
Prep haloumi
- Pat 400 g haloumi dry and slice into 1cm thick patties. Season with salt and pepper. Add ¼ cup flour to a plate or shallow bowl. Whisk 1 egg in a separate shallow bowl and add ½ cup panko breadcrumbs to a separate plate. Coat the haloumi patties in the flour, then dip them into the egg to coat, and then press them firmly into the breadcrumbs to coat.
Cook haloumi
- Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large frypan on medium heat. Cook the haloumi for 3 minutes on each side, or until golden and crispy. Set aside on a paper towel-lined plate. Reserve the pan on heat.
Cook bacon
- Add 200 g bacon to the reserved pan and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until cooked to your liking.
To finish
- Meanwhile, cut 4 burger buns in half. When the chips have 5 minutes of cooking time remaining, place the buns on a rack above the chips and cook for about 5 minutes, until heated through and slightly golden. Thinly slice 1 cucumber into rounds.
To serve
- Spread the buns with the burger sauce. Top with the slaw, cucumber, crumbed haloumi and bacon. Serve the chips, remaining slaw and cucumber on the side with tomato sauce for dipping.
