So it’s been a while since my last post…and a lot happened in the meantime. I became a father, and moved to our own home with my family. Year’s end has been busy for me.
The new home means new equipment as well. I now cook with an electric stove besides my electric oven, so from now on I will provide cooking times and methods according to that.
Once again, my trusty spirit guide in all thing kitchen, BBC’s Good Food was the source. More precisesly this recipe.
What you will need:
- 2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into chips
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 500 gram minced beef
- 2 tablespoons thai red curry sauce
- 6 spring onions, chopped
- small bunch of coriander, minced
- 200g pineapple chunks, diced
- juice ½ lime
- 1 teaspoon chili flakes
- 2 tablespoon sweet chili sauce
- 4 lettuce leaves
- 4 buns halved and toasted
How to make it:
- Heat the oven to 200 °C (180 °C fan). Mix the sweet potato chips with the oligve oil, some salt and pepper, spred it on a baking sheet, and roast for 30-35 minutes, until crisp.
- Mix the mince with the curry paste, half the spring onions, half the coriander, and a pinch of salt. Shape it into 4 patties.
- Mix the remaining spring onions and coriander with the pineapple, lime juice, red chilli and sweet chilli sauce
- Cook the burgers for 4-5 minutes on each side in a grillpan until cooked through.
- Serve the burgers in the buns with lettuce leaves and salsa piled on top, and the sweet potato chips on the side.
