Instructions
1
Prep
Cut the potatoes into thick fries. Shape the beef into 2 flat patties. Grate the cheddar ready for the sauce.
2
Fry
Fry the potatoes in hot oil over medium-high heat 8–10 minutes until golden and crisp, then drain and salt.
3
Sear
Fry the beef patties over medium-high heat 3 minutes a side until browned and cooked through, then set each on a slice of toast.
4
Simmer
Melt butter, stir in flour 1 minute, then whisk in milk and beer. Simmer over medium heat 3–4 minutes and stir in the cheddar until melted.
5
Plate
Divide the fries between both sandwiches, piling them over each patty and toast, then smother each with the cheese sauce to serve.
