Ginger-Wasabi Burgers

Posted by: maudite on: 20090107

Overview

These burgers go well with a wasabi mayonnaise or a sweet chili sauce. I also recommend a chibata roll instead of a regular bun. I didn’t have any when I made these, but a little bit of rice vinegar would be great in the sauce. This makes about 6 patties.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb of ground turkey
  • 1/2 cup of sticky rice
  • 1/4 cup of Panko
  • 1+ tbl of fresh minced ginger
  • 2 tbl of teriyaki sauce
  • 1 tbl of soy sauce
  • 1 tbl of honey ( or sugar)
  • 1 tbl of wasabi ( or horseradish sauce because that’s all wasabi is)
  • 1/4 cup of chopped green onions
  • 1 egg

Prep Steps

  1. Cook the sticky rice
  2. While rice is cooking, mince the ginger root and chop the green onions.
  3. Mix the ginger, teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, honey and wasabi in a mixing bowl to taste. I like mine a little spicy so I add a lot of wasabi.
  4. Add the green onions and the egg and mix well. The egg is there to help hold everything together as it cooks.
  5. Add the rice and the panko and mix with the sauce
  6. Add the ground turkey to mixing bowl and mix well with your hands

Cooking Steps

  1. Form the meat into patties and cook.
