Prep 25 mins | Cook 10 mins | Serves 4
1 cob sweetcorn, husks removed
500g chicken mince
1⁄2 small onion, finely chopped
1⁄3 cup coriander leaves, chopped
1 cup fresh wholegrain breadcrumbs
1 egg, lightly whisked
Salt and ground black pepper
Vegetable oil, for pan-frying
To serve
4 oak leaf lettuce leaves
4 wholemeal bread rolls, halved
2 lebanese cucumbers, thinly sliced lengthways

Step 1 Place corn upright on a board, and using a sharp knife, slice downwards to remove kernels. Place corn kernels, chicken mince, onion, coriander, breadcrumbs and egg into a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix until well combined. Form mixture into 4 patties. Place on a tray, cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Step 2 Heat 1⁄2 cm (depth) vegetable oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add patties and cook for 4–5 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through. Drain on paper towel.
Step 3 To serve, place lettuce on each roll base, top each with a pattie, cucumber and coriander. Drizzle with sweet chilli sauce, top each with remaining bread and serve.
