Stir the mayonnaise and tomato purée together to make the sauce.
- 3
Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a high heat. Cook the patties for 4 minutes without moving them, then flip.
4 min - 4
Cook for 3 to 4 minutes more until cooked through, laying a cheese slice on each for the last minute so it melts.
