Thai-Style Turkey Burgers

Turkey is the leanest of meats,so using turkey mince can wipe away some of the guilt for having a very tasty succulent burger for lunch!

Ingredients

4 spring onions

1 red chilli

A thumb-sized piece of ginger, peeled

400g turkey mince

A small bunch of coriander leaves

50ml rapeseed oil

Crusty bread baps

Fresh salad leaves

Sweet chilli sauce to serve

Method

• Thinly slice the spring onions, de-seed and slice the chilli, and grate the ginger. In a large mixing bowl combine the turkey mince, spring onions, ginger, chilli, coriander and oil. Now get in there with clean hands and start scrunching everything together until really well combined.

• Divide the mixture into four and form into burgers. Place them on an oiled baking tray or plate, cover with cling film and refrigerate for an hour to firm up. This will ensure they keep their shape and don’t fall apart when grilling.

• Grill the burgers on just higher than medium heat for about 6–8 minutes on both sides, ensuring they are cooked through. Serve in some fresh crusty baps (toasted if you prefer) with in-season salad leaves and a generous dollop of sweet chilli sauce.
