Agave Glazed Turkey Burgers with Asian Slaw

For the turkey burgers:

(makes 6)

One large pack of minced turkey 

2 table spoons of 5 spice 

Table spoon of ginger paste (or if fresh - thumb sized grated)

1 clove of garlic 

A small red onion 

1 egg

For the glaze:

Soy sauce 

Agave nectar 

Chop your onion as finely as possible, then add to all the other burger ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Mix it all together to equally spread all the seasoning. Then make into burger shapes with your hands. 

Fry in a pan without oil for around ten minutes occasionally turning. Within the last couple of minutes of cooking the burgers cover them all in a generous amount of soy sauce and squeeze agave nectar to each burger. This will all bubble in the frying pan - that's good! Flip the burgers and make sure they're all covered in the soy and agave nectar and this will give them a nice glaze. 

To serve use two gem lettuce leaves as a bun. 

Coleslaw ingredients:

Half red cabbage 

3 carrots

2 peppers 

1 red onion 

Fish sauce 

Sesame oil 

Sesame seeds 

Finely chop the cabbage, peppers, and red onion and grate the carrots. Mix them all in a large bowl. Add a generous glug of sesame oil to cover all the veg and add a table spoon on fish sauce. Sprinkle with sesame seeds to serve
