    Absolutely brilliant recipe! I haven't cooked much with Turkey previously but since this I am spurred on to do more with it, especially with the health benefits of it being so much lower in fat than chicken. The Asian flavours really were fantastic and I was surprised at how well the burgers kept their shape. My husband loved it which I was surprised at, as he is a Head Chef and very scathing towards turkey!!! Definately one to do again.

    Wonderful. I served with some sweet chili sauce and the whole family loved them (even the kids).

    These are great for lunch boxes, i make the mixture into smaller burgers and freeze individually wrapped along with individually wrapped mini wholemeal rolls. take two burgers and two rolls out the night before and cook the burgers before school. My daughter loves a sachet of ketchup with them too

    Very easy to make and lovely tastes of Thailand (didn't add all the ginger as I am not too keen). My daughter took some in her lunchbox too! Made more of them and made them fairly flat to cook through quicker.

    Delicious! I've made turkey burgers before but this recipe is by far the best...even my two kids ate them (4 years, and 19 months - minus the chilli).

    Excellent with fried red onion and grated cheese on top! Maybe not quite so low fat!

    I made these for my boyfriend and I with the intention of cooking them on the BBQ, it rained, so I pan fried them as per the recipe. I was worried about not cooking them enough so they cooked for much longer than it says and they still came out great. They were really light but filling and very juicy. And one of the best things is the ingredients cost under a fiver, bargain! I did the sweet potato wedges from another recipe I found on this site, the perfect accompaniment. Here's hoping for some sunshine so I can BBQ them next time!
