Turkey Burgers

Ok, I watch Oprah sometimes - who does not? She ( well she had someone else do it for her ) made these turkey burgers a few years back. I just made them again and they really are good if you like turkey - even if you don't I think you might like them.
The chutney you can find in the "ethnic" section of the grocery store.
I just did this first part I did not do the second part with the raisins etc... so if some one else does let me know how that taste.
