Thread: What can i make with turkey mince?

I was thinking some kind of spicy burger. Has anyone got a recipe?

I made turkey meatballs last night with a spicy tomato sauce. The kids had them with pasta and I had them with roasted veg.

I think to make a syn free burger you need to chop a shallot very finely, break up the mince, add the shallot and either some chilli powder or chilli flakes, I'd put some salt and pepper in there and a splash of worcester sauce. You do need quite a bit of seasoning as I find turkey mince a bit bland. Add a small beaten egg and shape into patties.

I baked my meatballs in the oven at gas mark 7 for about 15 minutes on a baking sheet sprayed with fry light. For burgers you probably want to at an extra 5 minutes to that (depending on the size of them), or you could grill them. I wouldn't fry them as they might break up.

Thanks, your recipe idea sounds lovely. I'll try it tonight x

We use a finely chopped onion, salt and pepper, quit a lot of mixed herbs, an egg, lots of garlic, and chopped chillies. We make them in to half pound burgers then in the fridge for an hour. Then cook in the grill
