Home-made Sesame Buns

1. Mix and combine the luke-warm water, sugar, and yeast. Stir to dissolve and set aside until the yeast is active.
2. Combine the flour and salt with the yeast mixture, then add in the egg and butter. Knead for about 5 minutes, until the dough is springy when touched. Let rise in a warm place, covered with a kitchen towel.
3. When doubled in size, knock back and roll into individual rolls. Line on a baking tray and let rise for another 30 minutes.
4. Pre-heat the oven to 190°C (375°F). Sprinkle the buns with sesame seeds and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes.

Sweet and spicy chutney

1. Add 1 tbsp of the reserved sun-dried tomato oil and fry off the garlic, peppercorn, and chilis. Add in the chopped sun-dried tomato and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
2. Add in the crushed tomato with basil and the white-wine vinegar, which will give a slightly sweet flavour to the sauce. Add a splash of water if it looks a little dry, and the sugar.
3. Cook the sauce until sticky and store in a clean jar.

Burgers

1. Lightly combine all the burger ingredients together and set aside for at least 15 minutes to let all the flavours infuse.
2. When ready to eat, lightly drizzle your garlic-infused olive oil on the hot grill.
3. Place the burgers on the grill and cook to your liking — about 3 minutes either side for a medium result.
4. Place each burger on a homemade bun (you can lightly grill the buns on the same grill) and top with your favourite toppings — chutney, a sunny-side-up egg, and pickle slices all work wonderfully.
