The instruction how to make The best spicy burger with curry-leaf raita and mango chutney
- For the mango chutney, place everything in a pan over medium heat. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 30-35 minutes until thick. Cool.
- Meanwhile, for the raita, heat oil in a small dry frypan over medium heat. Add mustard seeds and curry leaves and cook for 1 minute until the seeds start to pop. Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Once cool, place the yoghurt in a bowl, then fold in onion, tomato and chilli.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper, then fold in the mustard seeds and curry leaves. Chill until needed.
- For burgers, heat oil in a frypan over medium heat. Stir onion and pancetta for 2-3 minutes until onion is soft and pancetta is golden. Add garlic and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Remove using a slotted spoon and place on a paper-towel-lined plate. Set aside to cool. Whiz bread and parsley in a processor to fine crumbs. Add lamb, curry powder, coriander and onion mix. Pulse until mix just comes together - dont overprocess. Season, form into 4 patties and chill for 30 minutes.
- Preheat a chargrill or barbecue to medium-high. Brush patties with extra oil. Cook for 2-3 minutes each side until cooked. Serve on buns, with chutney, raita, lettuce and tomato, with kumara wedges.
