All South African rugby fans are hoping that the great performance by the Lions last week was just a precursor for a cracker of a game this weekend.

We asked Nina from My Easy Cooking to suggest a spicy… erm… stomach liner to match the fiery spirit of South African fans.

Jalepeño Burgers with Blue Cheese Sauce

Makes four burgers

Ingredients

500g sirloin mince

5 Pepadew Jalapeño halves – finely chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

1 egg

Method

Mix all the ingredients for the burgers together and shape into four even-sized patties. Heat a griddle pan and grill the patties to your liking.

Ingredients for the Blue Cheese sauce

250ml cream

100g Fairview Blue Tower

Method

Pour the cream into a small pot and crumble the cheese into it. Bring to the boil and allow the cream to cook and reduce to a thicker consistency. Serve on burgers.

We hope the game tomorrow is as rewarding for the Lions (and their fans) as this delicious meal will be for your taste buds!
