CHEESY MEXICAN TURKEY BURGERS

Steps:

• Start the barbecue or preheat the grill.
• Remove the core and seeds from the tomato and finely dice the flesh.
• In a bowl, add to the tomato: the turkey, mexican cheese, paprika and fresh coriander. Mix well.
• Divide the mixture into four and shape into burgers. If you have time, cover and chill in the fridge for 20 minutes to let the flavours blend.
• Place a sheet of foil over the barbecue or grill, or use a baking sheet if preferred- because these burgers are made from a low fat meat, they can break up if not handled carefully, so the foil helps them to stay together. Handle and flip them with care.
• Place the burgers on the barbecue or under a grill, on the foil or baking sheet.
• Cook for 15 minutes, flipping regularly.
• If using a barbecue, remove the foil at this point- after 15 minutes- so the burgers pick up the chargrilled flavour in the next 10 minutes.
• Cook for a further 10 minutes (whether using a barbeque or a grill) or until completely cooked through.
• Serve with salsa if desired, on burger buns, Mexican rice, or whatever takes your fancy!
