Indian Style Lamb Burgers With Herbed Yoghurt Recipe source: Anjum Anands Indian Food Made Easy Makes 4 burgers Ingredients: For the burgers 1 small onion, peeled 10 gms ginger, peeled 3 large cloves garlic, peeled 15 gms fresh coriander, stalks and leaves 1-2 green chillies, chopped or 1/2 teaspoon red chilli powder 300 gms lamb mince 1 teaspoon garam masala powder 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin powder salt, to taste 1 egg 2 slices white bread, crumbed (I simply take two slices of bread and whiz it in the mixer to get fresh crumbs) 1 tablespoon vegetable oil ** For a vegetarian version, you can replace the lamb mince with soya granules and the egg with 1-2 tablespoon of Greek style thick yoghurt. For the herbed yoghurt 200 mls Greek style thick yoghurt 25 gms fresh coriander leaves 15 gms mint leaves 1 green chilli (optional) 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper salt, to taste Directions: Using a hand blender/chopper, finely chop the onion, ginger, garlic, coriander and green chillies by pulsing or chopping them by hand. Add to the mince with all the other ingredients. If the mixture still feels too wet and doesnt bind well, then add some more bread crumbs to bind it better or else they will fall apart during cooking. Divide the mixture into 4 portions and shape them into 4 burgers. Chill for at least 20 minutes or until you want to eat, taking them out of the fridge 15 minutes before you want to start cooking. Meanwhile, mix together all the ingredients for the herbed yoghurt and season to taste. Heat the grill and cook the burgers on a well-oiled grill for ten minutes, turning them halfway. Alternately, you can also fry them but do so on a low flame to ensure that they are cooked through. Serve in warmed hamburger buns on a bed of lettuce, tomato and onion rings with a good spoonful of the herbed yoghurt on the top.
