Method

1. Mix the lean minced beef with a pinch of salt and some black pepper and shape it into a burger about 2 cm thick, pressing the centre lightly with your thumb so it stays flat as it cooks.
2. Slice the mozzarella and pat it dry with kitchen paper; wash the tomato, cut one thick slice and cut the rest into wedges.
3. Heat a griddle over medium-high heat until hot and cook the burger for 4 minutes per side, turning once, until well browned and cooked through. In the last minute top it with the mozzarella and cover with a lid until it melts.
4. Meanwhile split the burger bun and toast it cut side down on the griddle for 1 minute, until golden.
5. Fill the bun with the burger, the tomato slice and basil. Serve with the rest of the tomato and the mixed salad dressed with the oil, dried oregano and a pinch of salt.
