250g pouch mixed grains
(or 250g cooked mixed grains)
500g lean turkey
breast mince
2 large garlic cloves
finely grated
1 tsp coriander seeds
toasted and crushed
4 tbsp rose harissa
small bunch parsley
finely chopped
2 red peppers
150g rocket
2 tbsp rapeseed oil
1 lemon
juiced
3 cooked beetroot
grated
4 wholemeal seeded buns
toasted, to serve

For the sauce

1 medium courgette
½ small bunch dill
finely chopped
4 tbsp fat-free Greek yogurt
2 tbsp low-fat mayonnaise

Method

step 1
Cook the grains according to pack instructions. Leave to cool, then tip into a bowl and use your hands to mix in the turkey, garlic, coriander, harissa and parsley. Shape into four patties. Cover and chill.
step 2
To make the sauce, coarsely grate the courgette, discarding the seeds, then wrap in a clean cloth and squeeze out any liquid. Put in a bowl and mix with the dill, yogurt, 2 tbsp water and the mayonnaise.
step 3
Put the peppers on the barbecue and cook for 10-15 mins or until blistered and starting to char. Or, heat a grill to its highest setting and grill for 15-20 mins, turning halfway. Leave to cool a little, then peel and cut into strips.
step 4
Toss the rocket with half the oil and lemon juice.
step 5
Brush the burgers with the remaining oil and cook for 6 mins each side. Alternatively, heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat and fry for 6 mins each side. Serve with the sauce, peppers, beetroot, buns and salad so everyone can assemble their own burger.
