Serves

6 COOK TIME: 30 minutes

Ingredients

1kg Turkey mince

1 tin Drained green lentils or any cooked lentils of your choice

2 tspns Piri piri spices

½ tspn Cayenne Pepper

1 tspn smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

Small handful of fresh coriander

Steps

Start by mixing all of the ingredients together in one bowl. Once mixed, separate the mixture into 6 large burgers or 12 small burgers and spray with oil. Heat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius.

Line a baking tray with parchment paper and place the burgers on top. Bake in the oven for about 30 minutes.

Remove from the oven and serve with a side salad or chips.

YVONNE’S TOP TIPS

These burgers can become dry very quickly, so don’t overcook them. I like to serve my burgers with a side salad of rocket, cucumbers, sliced sugar snap peas and sliced radishes. You can swap green lentils for any other cooked lentils of your choice.
