1. 1. DO NOT peal your potatoes. Chips with skins are much nicer!
2. 2. Cut you potatoes into rough chip like shapes/sizes.
3. 3. Use approx 1 cup of ale to steam the cut potatoes.
4. 4. When they are soft enough to put a knife into with little effort, take them of the heat and let them dry out.
5. 1. Finely chop a decent handful of the piquante peppers.
6. 2. Thinly slice or tear the mozzarella (thin is good here).
7. 3. Put the mince into a mixing bowl and mash it up with your hands. The more paste like the better.
8. 4. Season with salt and plenty of pepper.
9. 5. Add a generous glug of Worcestershire Sauce.
10. 6. Crack the egg into the mixture.
11. 7. Add the chopped piquante peppers.
12. 8. Mix extremely well with your hands.
13. 9. Once mixed, take a handful of of the mixture and roll into a ball.
14. 10. Using the fleshy bit of your thumb, push the mixture into a thinish burger shape.
15. 11. Pressh some mozzarella onto the top of the burger.
16. 12. Get another handful of mixture, flatten on top of the other half with the mozzarella.
17. 13. Gently roll this up into a ball to make sure it is completely sealed, then flatten out again to make your burger.
18. 14. Repeat until all mixture is used.
19. 15. Wrap individually in clingfilm and put in the fridge.
20. 1. Heat your oven to approx 220c. Place a baking tray in the oven with a little olve iol in the bottom.
