1. Heat grill to medium. In a large bowl, mix together the first six ingredients, then season well. Shape the mixture into 4 burgers and place on a baking tray.
2. Grill the burgers for 3-4 mins on each side until cooked through, then keep them warm. Split each burger bun in half, then lightly toast, cut side up, place under the grill, cut side up, and lightly toast for 1 min. Fill the toasted buns with some salad and top with a burger and a good dollop of tomato salsa.

Healthy benefits

Using fresh ingredients, leaner cuts of meat and choosing to grill or roast instead of fry makes homemade 'takeaways' lower in saturated fats, salt and sugar. Cooking from fresh also reduces your intake of additives and preservatives while helping to retain much of the food's nutritional content.

  Nice burger recipe but there's no details of how to make the tomato salsa! It says in the ingredients list to use tomato sauce....

  Mark Recipe Ive noticed there is no info on the Salsa also. Ive had a look at this site and found a recipe called 'Dead Good Salsa' ok its not the same as the one in the pic, but i think it would work ok, and you most probably would have the ingredients in your store cupboard. Hope thats of help.
