  • 2g ground black pepper
  • 4.6g olive oil

  • food thermometer
  • clean plate

Method

  1. Wash and dry the salad vegetables, slice thinly and set aside. Prepare the measured bun or flatbread as its packet directs. Keep cold dressings chilled.
  2. For a chicken burger, flatten the breast to an even thickness and pan-fry in the measured oil for about7–8 minutes per side until75°C for30 seconds at the centre. For pork loin, use thin slices and cook through; for salmon or tofu, pan-cook an even piece until safely cooked and hot through.
  3. Mix the measured cold dressing ingredients; heat only a cooking sauce that requires it. Fill the bun or flatbread with a manageable portion of cooked filling and salad. Serve every remaining vegetable and all remaining filling/dressing alongside. Eat immediately.
