Ingredients

  • Turkey mince
  • Mini bread rolls
  • Cheese slices
  • Lettuce

Step-by-step

  1. 1Mix 400g turkey mince with a pinch of salt. Form 8 small patties slightly wider than the rolls.
  2. 2Heat a pan over medium with a little oil. Cook patties 3–4 min per side until cooked through.
  3. 3Place a cheese slice on each patty in the last minute to melt.
  4. 4Slice rolls and lightly toast cut sides in the same pan.
  5. 5Serve patties in buns with lettuce on the side so kids can build their own.

Adapt for a picky eater

  • ·Make it milder: skip strong spices, herbs and onions — keep salt, butter or a touch of cheese instead.
  • ·Swap an ingredient: trade anything they avoid for a safe favourite (e.g. cucumber sticks instead of cooked veg).
  • ·Keep things separate: serve the parts side by side, not mixed — sauce on the side.
  • ·Simplify: a smaller portion of just two or three familiar parts of the dish is a win.
