    1 Preheat oven to 200ºC. Cover a baking tray with greaseproof paper. Arrange kumara wedges on a non-metallic plate, half at a time, and cook in microwave on high for 4 minutes. Place on baking tray, spray with oil and bake for 20 minutes or until tender.

    2 Meanwhile, mix venison, harissa, half the onion and garlic in a bowl. Shape into 4 even-sized burgers. Use a little flour if you find the mixture too sticky to form into patties.

    3 Heat a non-stick pan with oil spray or heat barbecue and cook burgers for 7-8 minutes either side. Serve in burger buns topped with redcurrant jelly, the remaining onion, tomato, cucumber and lettuce. Serve wedges on the side.
