Give a traditional lamb burger an elegant twist by serving it on Turkish bread with a dollop of pesto on top.

Ingredients (serves 6)

450g lamb mince
2 slices finely chopped prosciutto
2 tablespoons chopped basil
1 lightly beaten egg
2 tablespoons fresh breadcrumbs
125g cherry tomatoes, halved
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 loaf Turkish bread
pesto, sliced red onion and mixed salad leaves, to serve

Method

Line a baking tray with non-stick baking paper. Place lamb mince, finely chopped prosciutto, chopped basil, lightly beaten egg, fresh breadcrumbs, salt and cracked black pepper in a large bowl and mix until well combined. Divide the mixture into 6 portions and shape each portion into a flat patty. Place patties on prepared tray and refrigerate for 15 minutes.

Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Cook the patties, in batches if necessary, for 3 minutes each side or until cooked through. Meanwhile, place halved cherry tomatoes, 1 tablespoon water and brown sugar in a small saucepan over low heat. Simmer for 6 minutes or until soft and slightly thickened.

Cut loaf of Turkish bread in half lengthways then cut into 4-6 portions and lightly toast. Place base of bread on serving plates and top with a little pesto, sliced red onion, the tomato mixture, mixed salad leaves and remaining bread. Serve immediately.
