One of the favorite dishes Mum makes is turkey sliders. These are a standard all year around, but they are especially enjoyable on cool summer evenings when we're sitting around the patio and enjoy the summer breeze.
Here's the recipe...
Take 1 pound of ground turkey breast, 1 large egg, and 1/4 cup of bread crumbs. Combine well. Mum uses her hands and just digs in.
Then add some fresh herbs... rosemary, parsley, cilantro, tarragon, and chives. Once you've rinsed them off and pat them dry, dice up the herbs. Mum rough cuts the herbs, but I always chop them up as fine as possible. Either way works.
Add that to the turkey, egg, and bread crumbs. Once it is all mixed well, pull apart small handfuls of the mixture. Form them into the shape of a ball, take a table spoon and smush them down into a patty before putting them on the grill or fry pan. Cook thoroughly.
Dress the turkey sliders any way you want. Mine always has mozzarella or provolone cheese, leaf lettuce, and pickles. Dawn's always as ketchup but no pickles. Mum's always has relish instead of pickles. Either way you dress it, turkey burgers taste great. They're a fresh, filling alternative to the standard beef sliders. Fabulous!




I often use ground turkey as a substitute for beef. The thing I love about that is that you can add so much more flavour!
