Method
In a frying pan over medium heat, drizzle a little olive oil and cook the bacon until lightly browned and crisp. Add the onions and cook for a further 3-4 minutes until the onions are soft and translucent.
Take the pan off the heat, transfer to a large bowl and let it cool before adding the minced meat and paprika, then season with salt and pepper. Mix well with your hands and form into 4 patties, roughly 130g each.
Pan fry patties over medium high heat in a non-stick fry pan. When brown, flip over and top with a slice of cheese. Cook until the cheese has melted and the meat is cooked.
Assemble the burger with lettuce, a patty, tomatoes, a pineapple and beetroot slice, a fried egg and your choice of condiments.
