Spicy Tomato Jam Ingredients

Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patties

    In a bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently and form into 4 equal patties, making a slight indentation in the center of each patty.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Add the Boursin Cheese

    During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Boursin cheese on each patty and cover until melted.

Spicy Tomato Jam Preparation

  1. 4

    Cook the Tomatoes

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the diced tomatoes, sugar, red chili flakes, minced garlic, apple cider vinegar, and salt.

  2. 5

    Simmer the Jam

    Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to a jam-like consistency.

Fresh Cut Fries Preparation

  1. 6

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Soak the cut fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. Drain and pat dry.

  2. 7

    Fry the Potatoes

    In a deep pot, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Fry the potatoes in batches until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt.

Assembly

  1. 8

    Assemble the Burger

    On each burger bun, place a lettuce leaf, a cooked patty with melted Boursin cheese, pickles, sliced onions, and a generous spoonful of spicy tomato jam. Top with the other half of the bun.

  2. 9

    Serve the Fries

    Serve the burgers warm with a side of fresh cut fries. Enjoy your Banks Home Style Burger!
