Makes 4

• 500g lean, fresh beef mince
• 1 onion, peeled and grated
• 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
• 2 tsp fresh ginger, finely chopped
• 1 tbsp garam masala
• 1 tsp turmeric
• 2 tbsp freshly chopped coriander
• —————————
• 1 large, ripe mango, finely chopped
• 1 small red onion, finely chopped
• 1 red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
• 2 tbsp freshly chopped mint
• 1 tbsp freshly chopped coriander
• Juice of a lime

1. In a large bowl, mix all the burger ingredients together. (Top 7 ingredients)
2. Shape the mixture into 4 burgers, then, cover and chill in the fridge for 20 minutes or more.
3. Mix all the salsa ingredients together in a bowl. (Bottom 6 ingredients) Cover and set aside, but not in the fridge.
4. Cook the burgers on a BBQ, or griddle, or in a frying pan, having brushed with a little oil, for 6-8 minutes each side, until cooked through. Keep the heat medium so you do not char them.
5. Serve burgers with the salsa, with or without the buns and fries.

I don’t recommend frozen mince as it generally holds too much water to stick together.

This is a good recipe for doubling, putting in a tub and freezing for another meal, or for if there are only two of you.
