Ingredients
For the burger:
- 250 g Minced lamb
- 0.5 red onion very finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic clove minced
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
For the tomato chilli jam:
- 75 g cherry tomatoes
- 2 tablespoon water
- 2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 30 g caster sugar
- 1 garlic clove minced
- 0.5 teaspoon mustard seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon dried chilli flakes
Other ingredients:
- 2 burger buns
- 30 g salad leaves
- 4 tablespoon tzatziki
- 0.5 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Chilli Jam:
- Cut 75 g Cherry tomatoes into chunks and put them into a pan.
- Add 2 tablespoon Water, 2 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar, 30 g Caster sugar, 1 Garlic clove, 0.5 teaspoon Mustard seeds and 0.5 teaspoon Dried chilli flakes. Bring to a simmer.
- Continue cooking the mixture until it starts to reach a thick jam consistency. At this point reduce the heat and watch the mixture closely to avoid it catching on the bottom of the pan. If you have a probe thermometer, wait until the jam has reached a temperature of 105°C/220°F. It will take around 10 minutes.
- Once cooked, set aside.
Lamb Burger:
- Put 250 g Minced lamb, 0.5 Red onion, 2 cloves Garlic clove, 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin and 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika into a bowl and use your hands to mix well.
- Mould the mixture into two burgers of a similar size and leave in the fridge until required.
- Make the tzatziki by following the instructions in How To Make Tzatziki.
- To cook the burgers, fry them in 0.5 tablespoon Olive oil, leaving them just moist inside – the cooked internal temperature should be 70°C. This will be about 5-7 minutes each side.
- Toast 2 Burger buns.
- To serve, build your burger with 30 g Salad leaves, 4 tablespoon Tzatziki, the burger then top with a tablespoon of the jam.
Notes
- If you are unsure of the chilli jam's ‘jaminess’, put a little of the mix on a cold plate and chill in the fridge. It will set after a few minutes and you will be able to judge if the rest is ready to take off the heat.
- You can either fry these burgers, cook them under the grill or cook them on the BBQ.
- These burgers are quite indulgent, so either eat them by themselves or you could serve them with fries or slaw if you wanted something extra.
- Our homemade tzatziki and tomato chilli jam go perfectly on this burger.
- You can freeze these burgers on a tray and then stack them in a freezer bag and keep in the freezer.
