Method

Step 1

Finely chop the meat in a food processor and tip into a bowl. Finely chop the other burger ingredients except the onions with black pepper and ½ tsp salt. Add the onions and pulse so they are very finely chopped. Add to the minced steak.
Step 2

Knead the steak and onion mixture. Form patties about the size of your palm and 2.5cm thick. Cover and chill for at least an hour.
Step 3

For the salsa, combine the red onion, coriander and tomatoes. Toss with the lemon juice.
Step 4

Grill, fry or BBQ the burgers for 4 minutes or until done.
Step 5

Serve in a warm chapati and top with the salsa and raita.
