I use minced chicken for burgers as i find them easier to digest (being white meat) and also more succulent. I made these with a chinese marinade for a change and served them up with a simple tossed green salad. For those of you watching their weight just omit the sesame oil and sugar and grill them without oiling the pan
INGREDIENTS FOR 4 -6 BURGERS
350 grams minced meat ( i used chicken)
1 tablespoon grated ginger
1/2 teaspoon of grated garlic
1/2 teaspoon of light soya sauce
1/2 teaspoon of vinegar
1/2 teaspoon of sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon of chinese wine or brandy (optional)
1/4 teaspoon of sugar (optional)
a pinch of Nitu Didi white pepper
a pinch of chilli flakes
1/4 cup of spring onions, chopped fine
1/4 cup of cabbage, chopped fine
salt to taste
METHOD: marinate the chicken with the above ingredients. Shape into patties and grill on a non stick pan till browned and done. Serve with a tossed green salad or fried rice or noodles. Simple, delicious and quick!!! Verrry Nitu Didi!!!
