"These burgers are absolutely to die for! An interesting twist to an ordinary meal. As you're prepping the patties they may seem a litle loose but don't worry, they will hold together, just be gentle! Mayo can be made mixing by hand if you do not have a food processor, just make sure you chop everything really good before mixing. Enjoy!"

I made smaller burgers as I wanted to sample one warm and one a few hours later at room temperature. Both were excellent! I'm taking two of my smaller burgers to work in a roll with baby spinach leaves and the yummy mayonnaise for tomorrow's lunch. Apricots are not my favourite fruit but they certainly work well in these burgers: a great blend of flavours. And a wonderfully delicious mayonnaise. Thanks for sharing this recipe. Made for PRMR.
