Ingredients

1 -2 Tablespoon harissa, more if you want it spicier

1 Tablespoon chopped chives
2 Tablespoons olive oil
lemon slice, to serve

Directions

Mix together all the ingredients in a bowl with the meat, except the olive oil.

Dust your hands with flour next ( as this step can get sticky) and shape into 8 patties.

If you have to do this in batches, use half the oil for the first batch and keep the patties warm whilst you fry the others.
