Steps:
- Heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the onion for about 5 mins or until soft. Leave to cool slightly. When cool, put the onion in a large bowl with the mince, egg, bashed crackers, chilli, garlic, ketchup and brown sauce, and mix well to combine. Divide the mince into 6, roll into balls and flatten each into a nice fat burger.
- Put the flour on a plate, dab each burger to the flour on both sides, then transfer to a baking tray. Wrap with cling film and pop in the fridge for a couple of hours.
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. To make the wedges, put the sweet potato on a baking tray and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with paprika, season, then give them a good shake or shuffle around with your hands to make sure they're well coated. Roast for 30-40 mins depending on how crisp you like them. Make sure you give them a good shake a couple of times to ensure they cook evenly.
- When the wedges have been cooking for 10 mins, drizzle the burgers with a little olive oil and put them in the oven to cook with the wedges for the remaining 20-30 mins, flipping them halfway. 5 Serve the burgers in the rolls with your choice of toppings, and a good helping of wedges on the side.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality ingredients: Use fresh, flavorful ingredients to ensure the best possible taste. Look for high-quality ground beef, sharp cheddar cheese, and fresh broccoli.
- Season the beef patties well: Don't be afraid to use plenty of seasonings on the beef patties. This will help to create a flavorful burger that is packed with taste.
- Cook the beef patties to your desired doneness: Whether you like your burgers rare, medium, or well-done, be sure to cook them to your desired level of doneness.
- Use a good quality bun: The bun is an important part of any burger. Choose a bun that is soft and fluffy, and that will hold up to the weight of the burger and toppings.
- Don't skimp on the toppings: The toppings are what really make a burger special. Be generous with the cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and onion. You can also add other toppings, such as avocado, mushrooms, or jalapeños.
- Serve the burgers hot: Burgers are best served hot off the grill. So, be sure to cook them just before you're ready to eat.
