Dinner - NO CARB Indian Lamb Burgers, plus chickpea veg curry and salad

I LOVE lamb, and it was a lovely day so I fancied a BBQ.

Sadly by the time I'd got everything together it was going to be too slow before it go dark, but never mind, was still a lovely summer meal.

Chickpea Veg curry:

In a saucepan throw:

1 chopped onion
3 copped garlic
1 chopped courgette
1 tin of chickpeas (drained)
1 teaspoon of my friends curry power
1 teaspoon of tomato paste
3 teaspoons of red pepper paste
splash of water

Turn on the heat and let it simmer while you get on with the lamb burgers

450g of lamb mince
1 teaspoon of gram-masala
1 teaspoon of course mustard
1 finely chopped onion
2 closes of chopped garlic
1 teaspoon of paprika

Mix together with hands and makes about 6 burgers - place in frying pan and fry WITHOUT oil, there will be enough fat in the lamb. Frying these burgers is OK - lamb fat is good for you, but frying them helps release the fat from the meat - drain off to lower the fat content if you are watching fat too - but I'm not worrying to much about fat and am loosing plenty of weight. Cook until just brown.

Salad:

1 carrot chopped into thin slices using a vegetable peeler
1 red bell pepper thinly chopped (I used a roasted and pickled one)
1/4 thinly sliced cucumber
1 tablespoon of yoghurt
1 teaspoon of mint sause

Mix well! Can add a squeeze of lemon or lime if you want it tarter.

There you go, a really filling protein heavy dinner, that's pretty fast (sub 30 mins) that is very low carb.
