Equipment

  • Baking tray For roasting the potatoes.
  • Large mixing bowl For tossing potatoes with oil and seasoning.
  • Frying pan For browning the ground beef.
  • Small bowl For mixing spice blend and burger sauce.
  • Air fryer (optional) Use instead of the oven for crispier potatoes faster.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano or mixed herbs
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2-3 medium potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 500 grams lean beef mince (ground beef)

  • pickle slices
  • 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon mustard, Dijon or yellow
  • 1 teaspoon pickle juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions
 

  • Mix together the spice mix ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Wash and cut the potatoes into chips, pat dry, then toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil and half the spice mix until coated.
  • Arrange potatoes on a baking tray and cook at 200 C (390 F) for 30 to 40 minutes, or air fry about 20 minutes, until golden and crispy.
  • Heat remaining olive oil in a frying pan over high heat. Add beef mince, break apart, brown well, then add remaining spice mix and cook until darkened and moisture evaporates.
