Creamy whipped potatoes atop tender beef patties are the makings of a practically perfect foodâor, better yet, a perfect practical joke. âHealthy Cooking Test Kitchen Ingredients:
1 small carrot, shredded |
3 tablespoons quick-cooking oats |
2 tablespoons fat-free milk |
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
1/2 pound ground beef |
toppings: |
2 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed |
3 tablespoons fat-free milk |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon white pepper |
2 tablespoons reduced-fat cream cheese, divided |
orange and green food coloring |
1/4 cup panko (japanese) bread crumbs, toasted |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the carrot, oats, milk, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, salt and pepper. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well. Shape into two 1-in. thick patties.
2. Grill burgers, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 6-8 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 160° and juices run clear.
3. Meanwhile, place potatoes in a small saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 10-15 minutes or until tender. Drain. Press through a potato ricer or strainer into a small bowl. Stir in the milk, salt and white pepper.
4. Place one burger on a serving plate. Spread 3/4 cup mashed potatoes over top. Top with remaining burger. Spread remaining mashed potatoes over top and sides of cake. In a small bowl, tint 4 teaspoons cream cheese orange; pipe carrots over top of cake. Tint remaining cream cheese green; pipe tops on carrots. Press bread crumbs into sides of cake.
