Preparation
Boil the potatoes
Heat the BBQ on high, making sure to oil the grill first. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Medium-dice the potatoes. Add to the pot of boiling water and boil, 11 to 13 min., until tender. Drain, return to the pot and season well with S&P.
Mise en place
Meanwhile, remove the root ends of the scallions. Thinly slice the celery crosswise. Separate the lettuce leaves. Core and medium-dice the apple. In a large bowl, combine the beef, ¾ of the spices and S&P. Form into 2 patties (double for 4 portions).
Grill the patties, scallions & buns
Toss the scallions with a drizzle of oil and S&P. Add the patties to the BBQ (or to a grill pan heated with a drizzle of oil on medium-high) and grill, 3 to 5 min. on one side, until partially cooked. Flip and add the scallions. Grill, 3 to 5 min., until the patties* are cooked through and the scallions are charred. Transfer to a cutting board. Add the buns, cut-sides down, to the BBQ (or to the same grill pan heated on medium-high) and grill, 1 to 2 min., until golden brown.
Make the potato salad
Meanwhile, to the pot of potatoes, add the apple, celery, vinaigrette, remaining spices and S&P; toss well.
Make the scallion mayo & dress the lettuce
Roughly chop the scallions. In a small bowl, combine the mayo, scallions and S&P. Drizzle the lettuce with oil; season with S&P.
Plate your dish
Divide the buns between your plates and spread the cut-sides with the scallion mayo. Top each bun bottom with a patty, the lettuce and a bun top. Serve the potato salad on the side. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking ground beef to a minimum internal temperature of 71°C.
