Method
For the burgers: mix together the lamb, mint, garlic, onion, Garam Masala, salt and pepper. Divide the mixture into four parts and shape each patties, before coating all sides with coconut oil.
Heat a griddle pan to a high heat and add the burgers, coking for 5-6 minutes each side or until golden brown. Lower the heat and cook for a further 4 minutes either side. Lay each burger on a chopping board and lightly cover with a sheet of greaseproof paper or foil to rest and to continue cooking.
For the veg: with the same griddle pan add the courgette and sear with grill lines, usually 2-4 minutes either side. Whilst doing this, you can start the yoghurt.
For the yoghurt: mix all the ingredients together with a little water to get a smooth consistency.
Finally heat the pitta in the griddle pan until they have grill lines and begin to open. Serve with the leafy greens and enjoy!
