Method: How to cook spicy Mexican burgers with guacamole and salsa
1. Mix all the burger ingredients together and make into eight patties. Set aside.
2. To make the guacamole, scoop out all the avocado flesh and put into a blender with the garlic and lime juice. Blend until smooth and season to taste.
3. To make the salsa, mix the tomato and onion with the beans, olive oil, lime juice, coriander and chilli. Season and set aside.
4. Heat up a griddle pan. Cook the burgers for about five minutes on each side, turning occasionally to chargrill all over.
5. Heat up a frying pan (with no oil) and warm the tortillas through. If using granary rolls, cut them in half.
6. Serve the burgers with some shredded lettuce, a dollop of yoghurt, the guacamole and salsa, wrapped in a tortilla or squashed in a roll.
7. Serve the lime and the jalapeño peppers on the side for extra flavour and heat
