Method

Heat the oil in a frying pan and add the garlic and shallot. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until softened. Cool on kitchen paper. Put into a bowl, add the mince and breadcrumbs. Season, mix well and divide into 6. Lightly flour your hands, then shape into 6 burgers. Chill for 30 minutes, put into a Tupperware box and then into a cool box.
Meanwhile, make the sauce. Chop the peppers and put into a bowl. Stir in the mayonnaise. Crumble in the blue cheese and stir well. Add the parsley and pop into a Tupperware box and put into a cool box. Put the lettuce in a separate box and put in the cool box.
At the beach, light the barbecue, following the manufacturer’s instructions. Brush the grate with oil. Barbecue the burgers for 12-15 minutes, turning once, until tender. Grill the buns. Put a burger in each bun and top with lettuce and pepper and cheese sauce.
