3. Shape mixture into ten patties. Place on a tray lined with nonstick baking paper, cover and refrigerate until required.
4. To make sauce, heat oil in a saucepan and cook onion, garlic, chilli and green pepper for 5 minutes or until onion and green pepper are soft. Add tomatoes, bring mixture to the boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until sauce thickens. Season to taste with black pepper.
5. Preheat barbecue to a medium heat. Cook patties on lightly oiled barbecue plate (griddle) or in a lightly oiled frying pan on barbecue for 3-4 minutes each side. Toast rolls on barbecue. Place a lettuce leaf a pattie, and a spoonful of sauce on the bottom half of each roll, top with remaining roll half and serve immediately.
