Method

- Meanwhile put a frying pan on a medium heat and add a glug of olive oil. Fry the onion for 5 minutes, then add the garlic, garam masala, chilli flakes and lemon zest. Remove from the heat. In a large bowl combine the lamb mince, breadcrumbs, egg and the onion mixture. Season well, then shape into 4 large burgers and chill in the freezer for 10 minutes.
- In the same frying pan heat a little more oil and fry the burgers for 10 minutes on each side over a medium heat. Serve with the sweet potato chips and a handful of dressed green salad leaves.
