Ingredients

  • 500g 5% fat beef mince
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 wholemeal burger buns
  • 4 lettuce leaves
  • 2 tomatoes, sliced
  • 200g white cabbage, shredded
  • 1 carrot, grated
  • 3 tbsp low-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar

Method

  1. 1

    Mix beef mince with egg, garlic powder, paprika, and Worcestershire sauce. Season well.

  2. 2

    Shape into 4 patties. Press a small indent in the centre of each to prevent puffing.

  3. 3

    Cook in a hot griddle pan or on a barbecue, 4–5 minutes per side for medium.

  4. 4

    Make slaw: toss cabbage and carrot with yogurt, vinegar, and seasoning.

  5. 5

    Toast buns lightly. Build burgers with lettuce, tomato, patty, and slaw.

  6. 6

    Serve immediately with extra slaw on the side.

Tip: Using 5% fat mince instead of 20% fat mince saves around 120 kcal per burger.
