How to make Curried Lamb Burgers with Grilled Vegetables and Mint Raita

Mix yoghurt, mint, coriander, and lime peel in small bowl. Season to taste with coarse salt and pepper. Cover; chill until cold, at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.

Heat 2 tablespoons oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, ginger, and 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt. Sauté until onion is tender, about 8 minutes. Mix in curry powder and stir 30 seconds. Remove from heat. Cool onion mixture to room temperature, at least 15 minutes.

Place lamb in large bowl. Add onion mixture, 1 teaspoon coarse salt, coriander, and 1 teaspoon cracked pepper. Blend mixture gently; shape into six 1/2-inch-thick patties.

Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Combine courgette, spring onions, and chilli in another large bowl. Add 2 tablespoons oil, 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt, and 1/2 teaspoons cracked pepper; toss to coat. Place vegetables and burgers on grill. Cook until grill marks appear, about 4 minutes. Turn vegetables and burgers over. Cook vegetables until tender, about 3 minutes. Cook burgers to desired doneness, about 4 minutes for medium-rare. Cut courgette and spring onions crosswise into 2-inch-long pieces. Cut chilli into thin strips.

Place breads on plates; top with burgers and tomato slices. Mound vegetables on burgers; spoon dollop of raita over. Fold bread up around burgers and serve with remaining raita.

• Often called a pasilla; available at some supermarkets and at specialty foods stores and Latin markets.
