Lime and yoghurt sauce.
- 600g courgettes, coarsely grated
- 150g Halloumi cheese, coarsely grated
- 1 egg
- small bunch of coriander, chopped
- small bunch of mint, chopped
- Olive oil for frying
- Sliced, toasted bread of your choice. I use ciabatta.
- 1 dl Turkish yoghurt
- 1/2 lime, zest and juice
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of sugar
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Rucola leaves, cleaned
Method
- STEP 1Mix together the Turkish yoghurt, lime juice and zest. Season with salt, sugar and freshly ground black pepper. Set aside.
- STEP 2Squeeze as much of the moisture as you can out of the coarsely grated courgettes. You can just use your hands for this, but I prefer to use a clean tea towel. Fold the towel around the courgette to form a ball and squeeze to remove as much moisture as possible.
- STEP 3Mix the courgettes, halloumi, egg, mint, and coriander together in a bowl.
- STEP 4Shape the mix into burgers. There should be approx 8.
- STEP 5Heat the oil in a frying pan, and fry the burgers on a medium heat until they are browned on each side (approx 4 mins on each side).
- STEP 6Serve with sliced, toasted bread of your choice, the lime and yoghurt sauce, and rucola leaves.
