Preheat the oven to 200°C. Cut potatoes in quarters. Pick rosemary leaves and roughly chop (discarding stalk). Peel and slice onion into thick rings. Slice tomato. Slice mozzarella into 4 even slices.
Roast Potatoes:
Toss potatoes with olive oil, rosemary, salt and pepper and roast in oven on a lined baking tray until golden and crunchy, about 25 minutes.
Make Burgers:
Place mince and half the pesto in a bowl with a good pinch of salt and pepper and mix well to combine. Form into 2 burger patties. Place on a plate and chill while you prepare the rest of your ingredients.
Cook Veg:
Heat a fry pan over medium-high heat. Toss onion in a little oil and grill for 1 minute each side or until just cooked. Mix remaining pesto with mayonnaise. Cut rolls in half, and cook cut side down in the same pan for 1 minute, until warmed through.
