One Saturday night my Mr suggested that we film the making of this recipe.
It was a great idea, but Saturday night is a workout session for us, so bearing in mind the children are in bed for 7pm, we had to workout and then start cooking, it was a busy night.
But i’m really delighted with the final dish and hope you will be too.

Ingredients for 1 serving
| 218 g | extra lean beef mince | 46 g | onions | 116 g | mushrooms | 14 g | Thai red curry paste | 10 g | fresh coriander | 365 g | new potatoes, hand cut into fries | 1 | lime, juice only | 1-3 tbsp | water | 1 | chilli, sliced, seeds or no seeds up to you! | 6 g | olive oil | 13 ml | sweet chilli sauce | 149 g | broccoli |
Method
- Pre-heat your oven to 190°C fan/400°F and line a baking sheet with non stick foil.
- Chop the new potatoes into fries or wedges, and if you have an Actifry pop them in with your oil and set the timer for 25 minutes.
- OR
- If you don’t have one, line a baking sheet with non stick foil, add the potatoes and drizzle the oil over them and bake for 25 minutes before checking them.
- Place the mushrooms onto a baking tray with a sprinkle of salt to help draw out the natural juices and bake them for around 10-15 minutes cooking time to soften and then take them out and set aside.
- To make the salsa, take a mini food processor, add the coriander, sweet chilli sauce, the chilli and the juice of half a lime.
- Give it a blitz and taste it.
- Add half of the onion and give it a little blitz again.
- It maybe the case that there isn’t much liquid, so start by adding 1-2 tablespoons of water gradually to slacken your salsa and add a little more lime juice if necessary – don’t forget to taste it!
- Pour this into a small bowl for later.
- Put half of your mince into the mini food processor along with the Thai curry paste and the remainder of your onion or spring onion and give it a blitz.
- Put the remainder of your mince into a bowl, add your mince mixture and using your hands mix the two together.
- Using wet hands start to make your burger patties and arrange them on a pre-lined baking sheet.
- Repeat until all your mince mixture has been used.
- Pop these in the oven to bake for around 20 minutes before checking them.
- When they’re firm to the touch they’re ready.
- Steam your broccoli to your liking and check your fries.
- Pop everything onto your plate and don’t forget to serve the salsa, it’s zingy!
Recipe Notes
- Make sure your mince is extra lean, less than 5% of fat per 100g.
- For those on 2018 BC plans, sweet chilli sauce is a swap for other side sauces provided you choose one with equivalent macros.
- For anyone following BC plans, the quantities of the Thai curry paste and sweet chilli sauce have been halved in order to have both in this recipe.
