Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

Before you start

  • Bring a medium saucepan filled with salted water to a boil
  • Pull out a large frying pan, a medium bowl, a small bowl, a peeler & a sieve

Boil the potatoes

  • Peel and dice the potatoes into 3cm chunks
  • Add the potatoes to the saucepan and simmer for 10-12 mins, until just soft, then drain

Build the salad & sizzle the burgers

  • Meanwhile, dice the cucumber into 1cm chunks. Halve the tomatoes. Finely dice the onion
  • Add all to the medium bowl, along with the juice from half the lime. Season with salt and pepper
  • Heat the large frying pan with 1/2 tsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the burgers and cook for 8 mins, then flip and cook for a further 6 mins, until cooked through. Drain off any excess fat and season with salt and pepper

Prep the yoghurt

  • Finely chop the coriander. Deseed and finely dice the half chilli
  • To the small bowl, add the coriander and chilli (for those who'd like the heat), along with the yoghurt, cumin and juice from the remaining lime. Season with salt and pepper

Make the tikka potatoes

  • Reheat the saucepan with 1 tsp oil on medium heat. Once hot, add the potatoes back to the pan with the tikka paste. Gently toss to coat the potatoes and cook for 2-3 mins. Season with salt and pepper

Plate up

  • Check your meat is cooked through; it should be golden brown, steaming hot, the juices should run clear when cut and there should be no pink / rare meat inside
  • Share the burgers between plates, with the tikka potatoes and kachumber salad alongside. Dollop with the chilli cumin yoghurt. Scatter over the nigella seeds
