Description

These juicy lamb burgers are full of fragrant coriander with pops of heat from fresh chilli. Cook them on the barbecue for a smoky flavour, or just inside in a frying pan if the weather is against you. They will be delicious either way. We add chilli sauce to this burger for extra heat, but leave it out for a lovely mild chilli flavour from the burgers.

Ingredients

4 lamb, coriander and chilli burgers
4 burger buns
1 small red onion, finely sliced
120g natural yoghurt
2 baby cucumbers , finely chopped
4 tablespoons rice vinegar
Pinch caster sugar
1 Castelfranco or other lettuce
2 red chillies, finely chopped
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil

Method

If using a barbecue, light it for direct cooking (if cooking inside, heat a frying pan or skillet).
Combine the red onion, rice vinegar, caster sugar and a large pinch of salt with 120ml water. Mix well and set aside.
Combine the cucumber, yoghurt and a pinch of salt and some pepper, and set aside.
Combine the chopped red chillies, red wine vinegar and olive oil and set aside.
Cook the burgers for a few minutes each side, or until cooked through. Lightly toast the buns.
Build the burgers with a layer of Castelfranco, some of the cucumber yoghurt, the burgers, the pickled onions and the chilli sauce. Eat immediately!
