Kofta, reimagined as a burger: spiced lamb mince with onion, garlic, garam masala and coriander, grilled until charred outside and juicy within, then tucked into pita with cool yogurt, tomato and crunchy red cabbage. The chilli sauce brings the heat. It's a street-food mashup that out-juices any beef patty.
Ingredients
- 1kg Lamb
- 2 Onion
- 1 Garlic Bulb
- 6 tablespoons Garam Masala
- Bunch Coriander
- 1 tablespoon Chilli Sauce
- 8 Pita Bread
- 4 sliced Tomato
- 1/2 Red Cabbage
- 1 sliced Red Onions
- Small pack Yogurt
Instructions
- Tip the mince into a large bowl with all the other burger ingredients and a good pinch of salt.
- Get your hands into the mix and squelch everything together through your fingers until completely mixed. Pat the mix into 16 small burgers.
- To cook, heat grill to its highest setting and lay the burgers in a single layer on a baking tray.
- Grill on the highest shelf for 5-6 mins on each side until browned and cooked through.
- Pile burgers onto a platter and serve with all the accompaniments, so everyone can construct their own sandwich.
