This is my latest creation in my attempt to make comfort foods like burgers more healthy. We love a good burger but I am on a low fat diet. So, every Friday for the past few weeks, rather than going out to have fatty fast food meal I have been trying to invent a different type of reduced fat burger. This was the invention from tonight and I think it made the transition from brain to plate fairly well. I had mine simply with a bit of fat free mayo and a slice of tomato and my partner had a bit of ketchup and some onions. Ingredients:
1 lb extra lean ground pork |
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh ginger, finely diced |
1 tablespoon dried onion flakes |
4 tablespoons chunky applesauce |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley |
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients and mix well with hands.
2. Form into four equal sized patties.
3. Either pan fry in a bit of oil or do as I do and brush them lightly with olive oil and do them on a Foreman grill type machine for about 8 minutes or so until fully cook through. Serve.
