Keema patties with chickpea and yoghurt salad

"Keema is an Indian dish made with mince meat - these patties have similar flavourings and make a spicy alternative to burgers". (extract from Olive Magazine)
This versatile chickpea salad would go well with most meats, nice for a summer salad at a bbq, or just with pitta bread or naan bread for a light lunch. It's a recipe from July edition Olive Magazine.

Ingredients

300g lean lamb mince
a small bunch of coriander chopped
half a red onion grated
