Ingredients

500g turkey mince

85g fresh breadcrumb

3 tbsp red Thai curry paste (2 tbsp if you are using an authentic hot Thai brand

½ bunch spring onion finely chopped

1 egg , beaten

1 tbsp sunflower oil

mango pickle mayo

Spicy mango salsa

4 ciabatta rolls, split

handful Baby Gem lettuce leaves

½ cucumber , peeled and sliced

4 ripe tomatoes , sliced

Method

Place mince, breadcrumbs, curry paste, spring onions and egg into a large bowl. Season lightly, then mix well with your hands to combine. Divide into 4 and shape into burgers. Chill for 20 mins.

Meanwhile, make the salsa and mayo. Brush the burgers with oil and grill for 7 mins each side, or until firm, golden and cooked through. Alternatively, cook on the barbecue.

Once cooked, toast the rolls, cut-side up, under the grill. To serve, top the rolls with a turkey burger, add lettuce, cucumber, tomato slices and a spoonful of mayo or salsa and put the lids on.
