Instructions

• 1Place the buns cut side up in the air fry basket. Insert the basket into rack position 3. Set the oven to Grill, High, for 2 minutes and press Start to toast the buns.
• 2The buns should be lightly toasted. If not, grill them a little longer.
• 3Remove the buns from the basket and set aside. Leave the basket in rack position 3. Insert the wire rack into position 8. Place the roasting pan on the rack, so it sits beneath the basket to catch any drips during cooking. Set the oven to Air Fry, Super Convection, 480°F, for 15 minutes and press Start to preheat. Meanwhile, continue to the next step.
• 4Place the patties on a plate, brush with the oil and season with salt and pepper on both sides.
• 5When the oven signals, continue to preheat for a further 5 minutes. When there is 10 minutes left on the cooking time, carefully place the patties in the basket, evenly spaced apart and air fry for 10 minutes.
• 6The patties are cooked when a meat thermometer inserted into the centre reads 145°F for well-done. If not, cook them a little longer.
• 7Place a slice of cheese on each patty and return to the oven for 1 minute to allow the residual heat to melt the cheese.
• 8Spread a little mayonnaise over the base of the burger buns. Top with a patty, pickles, mustard, tomato, lettuce, ketchup the bun top and serve.
