Ingredients (serves 3-4):
Burgers:
- 1 small onion – finely chopped
- 2 large garlic cloves – finely sliced
- 1 teaspoon of dried chilli flakes
- 400g of beef mince
- 1 teaspoon of ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon of garam masala
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1 egg
Herbed yoghurt:
- 200g of Greek-style yoghurt
- 30g of fresh coriander leaves – finely chopped
- 15g of fresh mint leaves – finely chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon of dried chilli flakes
- Salt and pepper to taste
Other stuff needed:
- 3-4 burger buns
- 1 onion – sliced into large rings
- Slices of cheese to top the burger
- Crunchy lettuce leaves (optional)
- 2 tablespoons of oil
Start off by combining all of the ingredients for the burgers in a large mixing bowl. Use your hands to squash together the mixture until consistent. Once mixed well together take handfuls of the mix and pat into burger shapes. Make them as big or as small as you like.
Next, make up the herbed yoghurt by mixing together the yoghurt, coriander, mint and chilli flakes and season with a little salt and pepper.
Heat up some oil in a pan over a medium heat and place the burgers into the pan. Cook for 3-5 minutes each side or until cooked right through (or to your preference). If you’re having cheeseburgers place a couple of slices of cheese on each burger a few minutes before they’re finished cooking and cover with tin foil to help melt the cheese.
Serve up the burgers on the buns topped with the sliced onions and herbed yoghurt. You can have them with fries etc. These burgers would work really well on a BBQ, just make sure that the mixture isn’t too wet. Enjoy!
