Burger and Fries, NO GUILT???????

Yes that's right, a good ol' American meal with a twist and without the guilt.......

Curry Turkey Burger topped with caramelized onion and feta with a side of oven baked fries.

YUM YUM was all that we said at the dinner table last night. When you make these oven baked fries you will never want a fried one again. This meal is so easy yet it looks like you slaved in the kitchen for hours.

For the Burger you will need:

Lean ground turkey

2 egg whites

2 teaspoon ground cumin

1 tbsp curry

2 teaspoon all spice

Combine all ingredients into a bowl and mix with your hands, form into small patties. Place burgers on a baking sheet with extra virgin olive oil.


For the caramelized onion you will need:

half of one red onion

1 tbsp brown sugar

2 tbsp red wine vinaigrette

S&P

Cook all ingredients together with the onion until it comes to a boil and the liquid is gone.


For the oven baked fries you will need:

2 red potatoes

2 tbsp Extra VOO

1 tbsp paprika

S&P


For the Burger assembly you will need:

Multi grain thin sandwich bread

small slice goat cheese feta

mustard

lettuce


Cut the potatoes in wedges, mix in a bowl with the above ingredients and place on a baking dish. Bake the potatoes in the oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes on the bottom rack, bake until a fork sticks all the way through. Once the potatoes are baked place them on the top rack and put the burgers onto the bottom rack. Bake for another 15 minutes, flip the burgers and continue baking for 15 minutes.

Place the feta on top of your burger, put the bread in the oven to warm and turn the oven from bake to broil. Watch the fries as at this point they become nice and crispy. Judge this based on your liking with your oven baked fries. Pull everything out and spread mustard on the bottom of the sliced bread, place the burger on top, add the caramelized onions along with lettuce and enjoy your GOOD OL' AMERICAN BURGER and FRIES with a TWIST and without the GUILT!!
