These Hash Bite Burger Bowls are the ultimate family meal. Part fakeaway, part deconstructed burger, completely delicious. The best part of any bowl meal is that everyone can add the toppings and portions they prefer. A bun is merely a vessel to carry the more flavoursome parts of a burger so why not skip it all together and enjoy these burger bowls instead?

Ingredient notes:

A selection of ingredients on a wooden surface, including lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, ground beef, onion, condiments, seasonings, and a bag of frozen hash bites.

Mince: The classic choice for this meal is beef mince. However feel free to use chicken, pork, lamb or even venison mince if you have it to hand.
Hash bites: If you can't find these delicious little hash bites, you could also use regular hash browns, fries or roasted potatoes.
Burger sauce: I find it deeply satisfying making my own burger sauce. But by all means, use a pre-made burger sauce if you have it to hand!

Step by step instructions:

Preheat the oven to 200°C fan bake. Spread the frozen hash bites on a lined oven tray. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until crispy and golden. Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.

Recipe FAQs:

Can I air fry the hash bites instead of using the oven?

Absolutely - cook them in the air fryer at 200°C for about 15 minutes or until golden and crispy.

Can I make this recipe ahead of time?

You can prepare the burger sauce and cook the mince in advance, then store them in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat the mince and cook the hash bites fresh before assembling.

Is this recipe kid-friendly?

Yes, most kids love it. You can serve the toppings separately so they can build their own bowls, or keep the sauce on the side if they prefer.
