Tikka Turkey Burgers
These Indian-inspired burgers are made with lean turkey mince and flavoured with tikka paste and yogurt. If you have the time, make these burgers a few hours in advance, which will allow the flavours to marinate the meat.
Serves: 4
Ingredients
1 onion, finely chopped
4 tbsp Patak's Tikka Masala Curry Paste
2 tbsp natural yogurt
1 tbsp mango chutney
500g pack Waitrose Fresh Turkey Breast Mince
3 tbsp chopped fresh coriander
Oil, for brushing
Method
- In a large bowl, mix together the onion, tikka paste, yogurt and mango chutney. Stir in the turkey mince, coriander and seasoning and mix until all ingredients are well combined.
- Divide the mixture into 4 and, with wet hands to prevent sticking, shape into burgers. Brush the burgers with a little oil and chill for 20 minutes.
- Preheat the grill or barbecue and cook the burgers for 6-8 minutes on each side until they are thoroughly cooked, the juices run clear and there is no pink meat.
- Serve the burgers in halved Waitrose Garlic and Coriander Small Naan Breads with some baby spinach leaves and a spoonful of Waitrose Tzatziki.
Cook's tips
These burgers can be frozen. Open-freeze the patties on a tray lined with greaseproof paper until firm, then pack into labelled containers or freezer bags and freeze for up to 1 month. Defrost thoroughly in the fridge before cooking.
