Lamb Kofta Burgers With Grilled Eggplant And Spiced Yoghurt
Ingredients
10 small burger buns
2 large eggplants
2 baby cos
Kofta mix
1kg lamb mince
60g breadcrumbs
200g currants
150g slivered almonds, crushed
4 eggs
50g parsley, roughly chopped
250g onion, finely diced
15g garlic, minced
75g kecap manis
1 tbs chilli flakes
2 tbs smoked paprika
1/2 tbs white pepper
1 & 1/2 tbs salt flakes
Spiced Yoghurt
4 tbs natural or greek yoghurt
3 tsp garam masala
1 tsp salt
Method
Kofta Mix
Combine all of the ingredients together in a large bowl. Mix together with your hands, but be sure not to overwork the mix as it will become tough.
Shape the mixture into 8cm patties and cook off over a BBQ or grill until the burgers are medium-rare. Leave the burgers to rest before assembling the burger.
Spiced Yoghurt
Mix all ingredients together in a bowl.
To plate
Slice the eggplants into 1cm thick rounds. Coat with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and grill over a BBQ or grill.
To assemble the burger, grill your buns until they’re lightly toasted. Spoon over some of the spiced yogurt on the top and bottom of the bun.
Place a burger on the bottom, followed by a couple of baby cos leaves and a few slices of the grilled eggplant.
