1
Put the lemongrass, garlic, ginger, green onions, cilantro, chili flakes and lime zest into a food processor or chopper along with the water and blitz them until they are finely chopped and combined.
2
Add the mixture to the turkey and also put in the egg white.
3
Mix the turkey and the other ingredients together by hand until they are well combined.
4
Put into the fridge to chill for about 30 minutes for them to firm up a bit.
5
Take out of the fridge and shape into four equal sized burger patties.
6
Then either fry them off in a pan as you would normally do or do as I do and brush them very lightly with a bit of extra virgin olive oil and cook them on a Foreman type grill. It takes about 8 minutes or so for them to be fully cooked.

Serve.
