My recipe for Greek burgers Delicious Greek food
Always keep in mind.good quality ingredients and no substitutions yield perfect results.
Burgers are a great fascination all over the world.The Americans though have gone a step further and make burgers and hot gods their national food .Think of all the picnics and national holidays,Amerika goes up in flames with all the burgers and hot dogs grilling…And they know how to dress them so well…
We like burgers and we make them very tasty,we use lamb also for a nice variety,the only thing to remember is that lean meat doesn’t make a good burger,the ratio is 20% fat so you can have a juicy burger.
We like to add nice spices to the meat and if you don’t want to dress them up it’s OK they taste great just like that…
Great recipe for Sliders….
- Ingredients
- 2 pounds Beef minced (medium in fat)
- 1 onion finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic crushed
- 1 egg lightly beaten
- 1 tomato finely chopped (run tomato under hot water to remove skin)
- ½ cup bread crumbs
- 1 cup feta crumbs
- Salt, pepper and dry oregano
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Place all ingredients in a large bowl and mix well until combined.
Shape into 10 large burgers and place in the fridge for a little while to let them set and for the flavors to come together and create their magic.
Oil the rack and cook 4 min. on each side turning once, or according to your liking. (Medium heat)
These burgers or Biftekia as we call them in Greek need nothing else to make them delicious.
They are very juicy and very flavorful no need to dress them up to make them eatable.
A touch of lemon and you are set,but if you want to dress them up you can do that too.
What an easy and delicious meal.
Good weather is upon us so take advantage…start the BBQ!
P.S.Always keep in mind.good quality ingredients and no substitutions yield perfect results.
Agape, Litsa!
