Wouldn't you know it, my mum dumped a bag of cooking apples (from her friends garden) on me, just at the right time! Well i used most of them for apple pies, but I saved a couple for this recipe here.
I've got turkey mince, onion, apple, mustard, rocket, sage and burger buns.
I start by chopping some onion as fine as I can manage.
and same with the apple, I ended up just doing one apple, it looks like plenty to me.
And then the turkey mince, chopped 3 fresh sage leaves, and seasoned it all with salt & pepper. Now to get my hands really messy and make the patties.
Ah, its so much easier when you don't have to take photos halfway through. Oh, also I remembered i had half an egg in my fridge so i've added that to the mix. Honestly i would reccomend using a whole egg because there's not gonna be a lot to help bind these. Im also frying them with a bit of butter in my big pan.
While thats cooking we can get the burger bun ready. I toasted it a bit and i add a generous spread of dijon mustard and a handful of rocket, aka arugula.
These might come out a bit dry honestly, but they should be cooked through. And hey, they stayed together just fine. Sorry i rammed too much rocket in there it kinda ruins the presentation a bit but I didnt wanna make a bigger mess trying to take half of it out.
I like it. The peppery rocket and mustard make the whole thing, well, very peppery. You can't taste the burger quite so much under all that, maybe its a bit sour and oniony? Mostly the turkey mince is a bit dry, i think thats just how turkey works. Maybe it would be better with more sauce, but no complaints, its a perfectly fine turkey burger.
