Method

  1. Heat a fry pan on medium with oil. Add minced onion and cook for 5 minutes, stirring, until soft. Then add 1 level tablespoon Latasha’s Kitchen Tandoori Sauce/Marinade, and cook for another 3-4 minutes on low. Cool mixture slightly. Combine cooled onion tandoori mix with lamb mince, chopped coriander and mint in a bowl. Season with pepper.
  2. With wet hands, shape and divide mince mixture into four even portions. Shape each portion into a 12 cm patty. Place on a plate and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to rest.
  3. Next place a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the patties and cook for 4-5 minutes each side or until browned and cooked through. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil. Set aside for 5 minutes to rest.
  4. Meanwhile, combine the cucumber, red onion and lemon juice in a glass or ceramic bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Combine yogurt and Latasha’s Kitchen Green Coriander Sauce in a small bowl.
  6. Drain cucumber salad. Add baby spinach leaves and toss to combine. Place patties on bread roll halves; top with cucumber mixture and a dollop of yoghurt coriander mixture. Top with bread roll halves. Serve immediately.

TIPS: Instead of burgers, make this recipe into Lamb Tandoori Meatballs and serve with the yoghurt coriander mix as a dipping sauce.
