Directions
To prepare burgers:
  • In a large bowl, combine all of the burger ingredients until
    incorporated. Do not over mix. Pat mixture into 8 burgers of the same size.
  • Cover and refrigerate
    until ready to grill.

To prepare relish:

  • If using regular cucumbers, seed them before grating.
    English cucumbers are naturally seeded, so you can skip that stage. Coarsely grate cucumber. Place
    cucumber into a sieve and squeeze out all excess moisture.
  • Mix cucumber and remaining relish
    ingredients together in a medium bowl and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Spray or brush
    burgers with oil on both sides and grill on medium heat. Grill approximately 7 minutes, or until
    cooked through, turning once.
  • Serve immediately with relish spooned on top.
