Plain yogurt and mango chutney dress-up these juicy burgers and offer the perfect tangy-sweet condiment combo. Make this dish a meal and serve it with steamed broccoli or a cucumber salad tossed with fresh mint or cilantro. We recommend using breadcrumbs in the burgers. In a pinch, you could use panko or grind up some quick-cooking oats in a blender to use as the binder. Curry powder — a mix of spices, herbs, and seeds, such as coriander, fenugreek, cumin, fennel, cinnamon, and cloves — can vary in flavor and heat intensity. If you like hot curry flavor, choose Madras curry powder, which is a hotter variety of curry powder.
