Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

Before you start

  • Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper
  • Pull out a large frying pan, a medium bowl & a measuring jug

Roast the wedges & prep

  • Leaving the skin on, cut the potatoes into wedges
  • Place onto the lined baking tray, drizzle with 1 tsp oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 25-30 mins, until golden
  • Meanwhile, dice the pepper into 2cm chunks. Reserving the juice, drain the pineapple and halve the pieces. Roughly chop the coriander. Trim and roughly chop the lettuce

Make the pineapple salsa

  • Heat the large frying pan with 1 tsp oil on high heat. Once hot, add the pepper and cook for 2-3 mins, until starting to char, then transfer to the medium bowl
  • Add the pineapple chunks, lettuce and coriander to the pepper bowl, along with the juice from the limes (or to taste) and a pinch of salt. Set aside

Cook the burgers

  • Reheat the frying pan with 1/2 tsp oil on medium heat. Once hot, add the burgers and cook for 2 mins, per side
  • Transfer the burgers to the potato tray and roast for 9 mins, until cooked through

Make the pineapple sauce

  • Drain off most of the burger fat, and return the pan to heat. Once hot, add the reserved pineapple juice, the tomatoes, tomato puree, honey, smoked paprika and the Jerk seasoning
  • Add 100ml water and season with salt and pepper. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 4-6 mins, until the sauce thickens. Remove from the heat

Plate up

  • Check your meat is cooked through; it should be golden brown, steaming hot, the juices should run clear when cut and there should be no pink / rare meat inside
  • Return the burgers to the pan and coat in the pineapple sauce
  • Serve the burgers on plates, with the wedges and pineapple salsa alongside
