Mini Rissoles

This is a meal I tried a while back and enjoyed. Yesterday I had a hankering for it and really had to make it. Only thing is, baby wants what I have so I had to come up with a baby friendly version. Mostly because these are quite chili (spicy) and I don't really think my daughter would have appreciated me handing her something that would burn her little mouth.
It is basically a small burger patty packed with yummy flavour (and chili) and served with a yogurt sauce. Yum! I normally have mine with a small salad. Goes great with a beet root salad or just a normal green salad. I served my daughters to her with a small tomato and mozzarella salad (her favourite) and a slice of bread. You can do the same for yours or serve it with potato,or whatever you want really :)
