Serves 4-5
Ingredients
- 1 onion, peeled and finely chopped
- 3 Tbsp tandoori paste
- 600g lean beef mince (or use lamb)
- 1/2 cup fresh white breadcrumbs
- 3 Tbsp natural unsweetened yoghurt
- 2 Tbsp freshly chopped coriander
Chilli Salsa
- 1/2 small red onion, peeled and finely chopped
- 1 red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
- 1 Tbsp freshly chopped coriander
To Accompany
- 4-5 naan bread
- 1 mango, sliced
- 1/4 cucumber, peeled into ribbons
Method
Pan-fry the onion in a dash of oil until tender. Add the tandoori paste and cook stirring for 1-2 minutes. Cool.
In a bowl, mix together the cooked onion mixture, beef mince, breadcrumbs, yogurt and coriander with a seasoning of salt and pepper. With wet hands, mould into 4-5 even-sized patties.
Cook over a moderate heat on a greased barbecue or in a frying pan for 5-7 minutes each side until the burgers are cooked. Alternatively cook under a grill.
Combine the chilli, red onion and coriander for the salsa.
Serve the burgers on warm naan bread with slices of mango and cucumber, with a little Chilli Salsa.
