Turkey burgers with herbed yoghurt sauce
Create a healthy yet delicious dinner this week. These turkey burgers are packed with veggies and served with sweet potato chips to satisfy all your fast-food cravings.

This turkey burger with herbed yoghurt sauce recipe was created in partnership with the Heart Foundation. Start by preheating the oven to 200 degrees Celsius. Then grease and line a baking tray with baking paper. Peel and cut the sweet potato into batons. Place the sweet potato in a microwave safe bowl.
Cook on high for 5 minutes or until just tender. Then arrange the sweet potato in a single layer on the lined tray and spray with olive oil spray. Pop in the oven and bake for 20 minutes or until golden and crisp. Meanwhile, crush the garlic into the mince. Then coarsely chop the coriander. Add half the coriander and the cumin to the mince mixture and use your hands to mix into well combined.
Divide the mince mixture into four even portions and shape each portion into a patty. Now heat a large nonstick frying pan over medium heat. Cook the patties for 5 minutes each side or until golden and cooked through. Next, place the yogurt into a small bowl. Crush another clove of garlic into the yoghurt. Stir in the remaining coriander until combined. Prepare the vegetables by shredding the carrot with a peeler or sharp knife.
Finally, shred the cabbage and use a peeler to cut ribbons from the cucumber. Now onto the rolls: cook the rolls cut side down in a medium frying pan over high heat for 1-2 minutes or until toasted. Remove from the pan. To make the burgers, spread the roll bases with the yoghurt mixture, top with the patties, carrot, cabbage and cucumber. Top with the roll tops and serve with the sweet potato. These turkey burgers make a wholesome meal for the whole family.
