Turkey Burgers with Herbed Mayo
Ground turkey combined with sautéed sweet potato and red onion, seasoned with fennel seeds and smoked paprika. Lightly bound with panko and egg. Coated in crushed cornflakes for crunch. Pan-fried till edges crisp and internal temp hits safe 165 degrees. Herb-infused mayo with oregano, basil, lemon zest cools the heat. Served on toasted brioche, layered with arugula and tart cherry preserves. A riff on traditional turkey burgers with unexpected texture and flavor depth. Smart swaps like sweet potato for moisture, fennel for subtle spice, and cornflakes to avoid soggy crust. Builds savory complexity and makes each bite more interesting.
Twice-Cheddar Double Burger
Two thick beef patties, hand-seasoned, grilled over high heat until a rich crust forms. Smoked cheddar swapped in for sharpness. Brioche buns toasted with butter to golden crisp. Quick pickled red onions add tart crunch. Salt and coarse black pepper for seasoning. Resting the patties lets juices redistribute so they stay juicy, never dry. Timing flexible, rely on texture and color cues. Substitute ground chuck if needed; use aged gouda instead of cheddar for a smoky twist. Toss onions in vinegar and sugar briefly before layering. Quick, robust, no fluff burger balanced with tang and rich cheese.
Homemade Burger Buns
Soft, golden burger buns made with a slight twist on hydrating liquids and a touch of honey instead of sugar. Yeast activation is crucial; dough texture signals readiness. Seeds optional but add crunch. Requires gentle heat and patient proofing. Baking cues are smell and color rather than clock watching. Makes 7 buns, slightly smaller size. Butter replaced with olive oil for a lighter crumb.
