If you are not in the mood for your usual meat and veggies, we have got something fun and delicious you can make for dinner.
Imagine a juicy beef burger topped with creamy whipped feta and Greek yoghurt as your meal for the night.
This is a flavour adventure that turns an ordinary meal into something special. So, why stick with the same old when you can make this amazing burger and have a tasty evening?
In a large mixing bowl, add the beef mince, along with ½ tsp (2.5 ml) salt and ½ tsp (2.5 ml) black pepper. Mix well and divide the mince into 8 balls. Flatten each mince ball into thin burger patties.
Heat a large, oiled griddle pan over high heat and fry the burger patties in batches, flipping after 2-3 minutes or until cooked to your liking.
While the patties cook, add the feta cheese to the bowl of a food processor, followed by the yoghurt, olive oil, lemon juice and season with a small pinch of salt (not too much as the feta cheese is salty) and pepper. Mix until the sauce is smooth.
Place the bottom half of a burger bun onto a plate, smooth with some whipped feta sauce, some rocket, add a burger patty, followed by a second patty, some more rocket, cucumber ribbons and red onion.
Smear some more whipped feta sauce onto the top half of the bun and add to the burger.
