Hektic Moroccan Burgers
Fully Sik Bro!

Genuine Moroccan Lamb is actually quite hard to come by. In their native land they're genetically bonded with Mint and Cumin at the cellular level for extra eating pleasure! Unfortunately, this makes them quite stressed, as they have to go through their whole lives knowing that they are, in fact delicious... and there is only one fate in store for them.

To be eaten by you, the reader! In Morocco, it's easy to make these - grab your Lamb or Cow, cut of a bit, cook, then eat! Unfortunately, we don't have Genetically Modified products here in Australia, so we'll have to make to with fresh herbs and spices...

This is an easy recipe that will take you about 15 minutes to make from start to finish. It's also very suitable to production-lining, or otherwise making a shitload of. How you cook them doesn't matter at all either. You could BBQ a thousand at once, or pan-fry two and they'd turn out just fine! Of course, they're also innovative enough so you'll impress your friends and family... because what would cooking be without basking in the devoted adoration of the people you've just fed? :)



Hektic Moroccan Burgers



Ingredients


Burgers
800g Lamb (or Beef)
1/2 bunch of fresh mint
Cumin
Black Pepper
1 Egg
Breadcrumbs
1 clove of garlic

Mint Yoghurt
400g Continental Yoghurt
1/2 bunch of mint
1 peeled and diced cucumber
1 clove of garlic
1 tablespoon lemonjuice

Ok.... this is a pretty simple recipe. And when I say pretty simple, I mean VERY simple. In fact, you could probably make this recipe, work on calculus and practice your ninja skills all at the same time! Hmmmm... now I'm stalling in an attempt to make the directions seem complicated. I think it's a rule that the instructions need to be longer than the ingredient list.... right? right?

Ugh. Fine.

Step 1 - Take the Burger stuff, and mix it. You'll need at least a tablespoon of Cumin, possibly more. Roll it into balls then flatten it. Don't add flour, that makes it shit. Crush or chop the clove of garlic.

Step 2 - Take the Mint Yoghurt stuff, and uh... mix it. In a bowl. It doesn't really matter what sort of bowl, it could be big, or small, or even square if you really want. Oh yeah, the diced cucumber should be exact 8mm cubes! This is very important.

Now cook the burgers any way you like. Grill, pan, oven, BBQ, however you like. Serve with lettuce, onion and tomato on turkish bread, and spoon LOTS of the mint yoghurt on the top. Trust me on that, you'll have people dipping their last bits of bread into the mint yoghurt on their plate by the time they're done...

And there you have it. Six lines of directions, and that was with leet year 10 essay padding skills! Who said all those years of essay writing were futile eh? :)

Wow, funky angle! Cmon, I had to make up for the simplicity of this message somehow!

yeah I got a sick recipe for a fucking balls strawberry and capsicum yogurt/aoli for this as well. Its a little something I learnt at Divers in Broome. Once you can make mayonnaise from scratch you can start fucking around with all sorts of shit. Whip up some mayonnaise. Dice up a small red capsicum. Dice a punet of strawberrys. Stick the strawbs, cap and mayo into a blender,quickly whizz. (Not to much though you don't want to turn it all to liquid still fairly chunkey.) add some yogurt to taste. Add the rest of strawbs and cap and give one super quick blast in a food proserer. stir and serve. dont blend it all into liquid you still want a few chunks in there and also it helps if you use a sweetish yogurt. You can also add mint to give it a cool bite. Whack some in the first whizz and add some crushed and shreded at the end. Just make sure its not to much because it (the aoli) has such subtle flavors its very easy for them to over power each other. you really have to keep deciding what quantities to add while making this through taste. If you feel it needs an extra something something use any herbs you see fit. corriander,lemon grass, cinimon. what ever. vanilla essence. its entirly up to you. Fuck around and have fun!

Good work! Hope your housemates appreciated it! Remember... it's all for the fans! The best thing about housemates is that if you ever run out of food, you can cook them :)

Not sure what's up next, there is the Tuscan salad that I can put up, but I'm off to the US in a couple of weeks for a month... Hmmm.... Leet-Eats USA maybe?

The theme:

"If you were an Australian visiting a Bulgarian Ex-Pat in Las Vegas, what would you cook?"
