What to do with all those zucchini in the garden? How about Turkey & Courgette Sliders?
Turkey & courgette burgers with spring onion & cumin – serves 4-6 (about 18 burgers)
500g turkey mince
1 large courgette/zucchini, coarsely grated
40g scallions/green onion, thinly sliced
1 medium egg
2 tbsp chopped mint
2 tbsp chopped coriander/cilantro
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp salt
½ tsp coarse ground black pepper
½ tsp cayenne
about 100ml sunflower oil for searing
Sour cream & sumac sauce:
100g sour cream
150g Greek yoghurt
1 tsp grated lemon zest
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 small garlic clove, crushed
1½ tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp sumac
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
To make sauce by putting all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Stir well and chill until needed.
Preheat the oven to 220ºC/200ºC Fan/Gas Mark 7/400°F
Mix all ingredients for the meatballs, except the sunflower oil, together in a large bowl. Shape into small burgers – they should weigh about 45g each and you should aim for around 18 of them.
Pour enough of the sunflower oil into a frying pan to get a thin layer on the bottom, about 2mm thick. Heat well and sear the meatballs in batches over a medium heat on all sides. Cook for about 4 minutes, adding more oil as needed, until golden brown.
Carefully transfer the meatballs onto an oven tray lined with greaseproof paper and cook in the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until just cooked through. Serve warm or at room temperature, with the sauce spooned over.
Wine Suggestion: a fresh, vibrant rosé suits the dish and the time of the year. Something like the Roc des Anges “Effet Papillon” rosé made from Grenache Gris really hits the mark with this.
