Everyone loves a good hamburger. And if you have diabetes, hamburgers can be a great, easy, low carb meal solution without the bun of course. I am chef Mitchell Nischan and I am going to show you how to make your average hamburger harmless, healthy, and tasty. Now I am going to start with a turkey burger because a lot of folks love ground turkey but they often complain it’s a little bit dry.
So I am going to put a little bit of silken tofu and I have mashed it and I am mixing it in with the ground turkey. Now the theme of the day is Southwestern, so I am going to add a little bit of ground cumin and a little bit of powdered garlic and I am just going to mash it in with this turkey with the silken tofu. We also have the good old-fashioned American beef and some veggie burgers. The veggie burgers made from beans are a great source of protein just like beef and turkey. Now here I have this great turkey mix. I have got a nice pattie here. And I am going to pop it in a non stick pan over a medium fire.
I am going to cook it till its brown on one side, put it in the oven at 350 degrees for about 8-10 minutes and then we take it out and this is what it looks like when its finished. Wallah! Nice, brown, caramelized. Now remember that this is low crab so we are going without the bun. I am going to put my burger on top of that and because we are sticking with the theme of Southwest, I think a little bit of sour cream is going to be pretty tasty on there.
I got some really good quality sorbet salsa, some cilantro. Another piece of lettuce over the top and there’s a darn tasty low crab hamburger that’s gonna taste great.
