Lesotho Burger

Because of the British influence, flavors have come to Lesotho from various British colonies, which means we can bring some curry into our burger patty. Meat isn’t always available, but when it is, chicken is one of the most popular. Like I’ve mentioned before, the best way to do chicken burgers is to get chicken thighs and marinate them, then grind the meat fresh for the burger. So that’s what I did here, lime, curry, onion and garlic flavors ground in with the meat – flavorful and delicious. This recipe was photographed by Daniela Galea, a registered dietitian
