This recipe I made up in desperation for something different on my low carb/low fat diet. Minced beef, chicken or pork could be used instead of lamb Add other herbs & spices as desired Ingredients:
250 g ground lamb |
2 medium zucchini, grated |
1 medium carrot, grated |
1 onion, chopped finely |
2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce |
1 teaspoon chili sauce, to taste (optional) |
1 teaspoon dried oregano |
salt & pepper |
1 egg |
3 tablespoons fresh ricotta |
cayenne pepper |
Directions:
1. Squeeze out any liquid from the grated vegetables.
2. In a large bowl mix together the first 9 ingredients. Add egg and mix thoroughly.
3. In a hot fry pan place egg rings & spray with cooking oil, ensure egg rings are coated all over.
4. Place spoonfuls of burger mixture in each egg ring until full.
5. Cook approximately 3 minutes, remove egg rings & carefully turn over and cook a further 2 – 3 minutes.
6. Mix ricotta cheese & cayenne pepper together.
7. Serving Suggestions.
