Method

1
Preheat the oven to 220C/200C Fan/Gas 7. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper.

Mix together the pork mince, chilli, lime zest and soy sauce until well combined. Shape into 4 burger patties and chill in the fridge on a plate.

Meanwhile, to make the ‘fries’, put the egg mixture and breadcrumbs into 2 separate, shallow bowls. Dip the courgette batons into the egg and then the breadcrumbs, turning to cover completely. Arrange the batons in a single layer on the baking trays. Drizzle with 1tsp of the oil and cook for 20 mins until golden and crisp.

Heat the remaining oil in a nonstick frying pan over a medium setting and fry the burgers for 5-6 mins each side until cooked through.
5
Mix the mayonnaise with the lime juice.
6
Split and lightly toast the 4 rolls and fill with the shredded lettuce, tomatoes, a little of the lime mayo and the burgers.
