1. Place mince, breadcrumbs, curry paste, spring onions and egg into a large bowl. Season lightly, then mix well with your hands to combine. Divide into 4 and shape into burgers. Chill for 20 mins.
2. Meanwhile, make the salsa and mayo. Brush the burgers with oil and grill for 7 mins each side, or until firm, golden and cooked through. Alternatively, cook on the barbecue.
3. Once cooked, toast the rolls, cut-side up, under the grill. To serve, top the rolls with a turkey burger, add lettuce, cucumber, tomato slices and a spoonful of mayo or salsa and put the lids on.

  Made this recipe with pork rather than turkey, as we couldn't find in the store. Still tasted fantastic!

  Good midweek meal, makes a lovely (and considerably more virtuous) alternative to standard burgers. One word of advice - don't be shy with the flavourings, as turkey mince will take an awful lot of spice before you can really taste it.

  Inspite of adding more spices and onions, did not find this recipe tasty. Will not be doing it again.
