Burgers With a Bite
Preparation:
Panfry, broil, grill or bake hamburger patties till golden brown on both
sides. Spread with the following mixture. (This topping is for 4 burgers.
It may be warmed but do not bring to boil or yogurt will separate.)
- 1 Tbsp minced garlic
- cup minced fresh cilantro (coriander), or mint, or parsley
- cup plain yogurt
- 2 tsp curry powder
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- tsp ground cardamom
- tsp ground turmeric
- salt to taste
- ground cayenne pepper taste
Serve burgers plain, or sandwich style in a bun or pita bread. Garnish
plate with fresh mint leaves and/or slices of cucumber topped with a dollop
of yogurt.
Suggested side dishes:
- Fluffy rice ( to add pizzazz to the directions on the box, cook
rice in chicken broth rather than water and add raisins and pine nuts, or
other dried fruit and nuts).
- Quick and delicious salad (serves 4)
- 3 medium tomatoes, chopped
- 2 medium cucumbers, chopped and seeded
- 4 thinly sliced green onions
- 5 oz. container of crumbled feta cheese
- oil and vinegar dressing (bottled is fine, or add grated parmesan cheese and some of
your favorite seasonings - garlic powder, basil, chives, dry mustard, oregano, marjoram,
a dash of Worcestire sauce - to your own oil and vinegar mixture.
