Tukey Burgers Adapted From Bobby Flays Turkey Kofte Recipes

Steps:

• For the Meyer lemon-honey mustard: Whisk together in a small bowl the mustard, honey, orange juice, lemon zest, lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 24 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
• For the burgers: Preheat the grill to high. Form the meat into four 6-ounce burgers. If you are not going to cook right away, keep the burgers cold in the refrigerator. Sprinkle the burgers on both sides with salt and pepper. Grill until cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. During the last minutes of cooking, add 2 slices of cheese to each burger, cover the grill and let the cheese soften slightly, about 1 minute. Put the burgers on the buns, drizzle with some of the Meyer lemon-honey mustard and top with a few sprigs of watercress. Serve with extra mustard on the side.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients except turkey together.
• Add turkey and mix well.
• Form into large patties 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch thick.
• Place onto a plate and separate patties with plastic wrap, then place in fridge for at least 1 hour to let flavors meld. (I pre-made the patties before-hand as I did not want to have to do them later. You could place the whole bowl in the fridge then form the patties before you cook them too.).
• When ready to cook, take plate of patties out and place oven on Hi broil.
• Spray broiler pan with Pam then add the patties.
• Broil patties about 6-7 inches from heat for 6 minutes one side, flip then broil 6 more minutes. Flip again, broil 2 more minutes then take out and add cheese to melt ontop.
• For my fixin's, I like to mix my mayo and ketchup together and spread on buns along with some avocado and sauted mushrooms, lettuce and tomato.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Soak the bread in water for 5 minutes, then squeeze dry and add to the next 7 ingredients. Mix until thoroughly blended and malleable. Shape into small balls the size of a walnut, using dampened hands so that the mixture does not stick. Lightly coat in flour.
• Shallow-fry for about 6 minutes, turning frequently, until golden brown.
• Warm the pita bread in the oven for a few minutes until puffed up, then cut a thin strip off one side of each pita to make a pocket.
• Fill pita with onion rings, tomato wedges, and a few Kofte.
