These Indian-inspired burgers are made with lean ground turkey and flavoured with tikka paste and yogurt. If you have the time, make these burgers a few hours in advance, which will allow the flavours to marinate the meat. Serve the burgers in halved baby naan breads with some baby spinach leaves and a spoonful of tzatziki. These burgers can be frozen. Open-freeze the patties on a tray lined with greaseproof paper until firm, then pack into labelled containers or freezer bags and freeze for up to 1 month. Defrost thoroughly in the fridge before cooking.
Ingredients:
1 onion, finely chopped
4 tablespoons tikka masala curry paste
2 tablespoons plain yogurt
1 tablespoon mango chutney
1 lb ground turkey
3 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
oil, for brushing
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, mix together the onion, tikka paste, yogurt and mango chutney. Stir in the ground turkey, cilantro and seasoning and mix until all ingredients are well combined.
2. Divide the mixture into 4 and, with wet hands to prevent sticking, shape into burgers.
3. Brush the burgers with a little oil and chill for 20 minutes.
4. Preheat the grill or broiler and cook the burgers for 6-8 minutes on each side until they are thoroughly cooked, the juices run clear and there is no pink meat.
