Monster Turkey Burger in an Olive Bread Bun

Monster Turkey Burger in an Olive Bread Bun

The dreaded discount fridge had a half kilo box of Turkey thigh mince at 88p the other day. Clearly I thought better of such expensive meat and left it there…… ( Just call me Boris Johnson! - I’m lying! ) So here’s another take on Sue’s Monster Burger, with Olive Bread this time and still under our £4 budget….

Burger Ingredients:-

½ a large Onion, finely diced
Dried Mint
Chilli flakes
Turkey Mince
Salt & Pepper to season

Method:-

(1) Mix everything well in a bowl.
(2) Form into four thick burgers.
(3) Fry gently on both sides until cooked through, but not too long as you will dry them out.

(2) Add to a square bun tin.
(3) Cook in a pre-heated over at 180c for 40 minutes.

Filling Ingredients:-

4 Slices of Mature Cheddar Cheese
1 Large Onion sliced

Mayonnaise

Build your burger!

(1) Slice the bun in half.
(2) Spread Mayonnaise in the bottom slice.
(3) Add a layer of Lettuce.
(4) Place sliced Onions over the Lettuce followed by sliced Tomatoes.
(5) Layer Bacon and the Cheese slices over the burger and then place under the grill to melt the Cheese.
(6)) Put the burger on top of the Tomatoes and place the top half of the bun over and secure with a skewer.
(7) Eat – fall asleep in a heap!

We made Onion Rings, a root vegetable Coleslaw and chips as sides and added a bit of salad. We will be eating cold burger today as we simply couldn’t have eaten it all in one sitting!

Asian Curry Puffs recipe, eat well on universal credit

OK this is clearly a fusion job! Our first attempt was an on-line Gluten Free recipe which simply didn’t work. We both had a pop at it and both failed. Sometimes recipes just don’t work.

So this was a real fusion dish made from various leftovers!


Ingredients:-

Left over filling from the Nasi Goreing Recipe
Left over filling from the Rellenong Pusit Recipe
2 Tsp of mild Curry Powder
1 Tsp of Chinese 5 Spice
2 Eggs, beaten
1 Tsp of Turmeric
2 rolls of Just Roll Gluten Free Puff Pastry ( Yes I actually bought Pastry! )

Method:-

(1) Mix the leftover filling with the Curry Powder and Chinese 5 Spice in a bowl.
(2) Mix the beaten Eggs and Turmeric in a dish.
(3) Pre-heat the over to 180c.
(4) Use an inverted bowl to cut circles out of the pastry.
(5) Add filling so they will be well packed, but you will be able to close the edges.
(6) Crimp the pastry to seal the fillings in.
(7) Brush with the Egg wash to add colour during cooking.
(8) Place in the oven for 45 minutes.
(9) Remove and place on a rack to cool.
(10) Freeze if required.
 

I work with a Vegetarian and a Vegan neither of who will appreciate these. But Clay, Jason, Dillan and I will….. We got 10 ‘Pasties’ on of left-overs and pastry. So the total cost including the Eggs etc. is about 22p each!
