We’re so excited about this burger, with crispy chunks of squeaky level-one haloumi, creamy pesto and a side of sweet potato wedges. Let’s just say you won’t need the local pub’s menu on hand when you’ve got this recipe under your belt.

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut the sweet potato into wedges and place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then spread out in a single layer and bake until tender, 25-30 minutes.
While the wedges are baking, slice the haloumi into 2 thin pieces per person. Thinly slice the brown onion. Thinly slice the tomato.
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a medium frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until softened, 5-6 minutes. Add the balsamic vinegar(for the onion), water and brown sugar and mix well. Cook until dark and sticky, 3-5 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl. Wash out the pan. Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Pat the haloumi dry with paper towel and add to the pan. Cook until golden, 1-2 minutes each side.
Place the bake-at-home burger buns on a wire rack in the oven until heated through, 3 minutes.
In a medium bowl, combine the mixed salad leaves (keep some plain for the burgers!) with the balsamic vinegar (for the salad) and a drizzle of olive oil. Season to taste.
Cut the buns in half and spread the bases with creamy pesto dressing. Top with the reserved mixed salad leaves, the tomato slices, haloumi and caramelised onions. Serve with the sweet potato wedges and salad.
