Mediterranean Burgers are my take on Luleh Kabob, only formed into burgers. They have a distinctly Mediterranean flavor that goes perfectly on the grill.
Mediterranean Burgers – Luleh Kabob Burgers
Mediterranean
Goat Cheese Sun-Dried Tomato Pizza with Basil
Goat cheese and sun-dried tomato pizza with basil chiffonade is a party for your mouth. It might sound long and complicated, but it’s not. This happens to be my absolute favorite pizza. Once you make pizza at home, you won’t want to order it out again.
Sous Vide Lamb Chops – Mediterranean and Healthy
These lamb chops are so flavorful thanks to marinating while they cook with a sous vide immersion cooker. We had them with a steamed artichoke and a small baked potato.
How to Make Homemade Yogurt Sous Vide
Homemade yogurt is pretty easy to make, but it’s even easier to make using the sous vide immersion cooker. Yes, you can have the yogurt you like any time you want. No more running out of yogurt.
Greek Turkey Burgers – The Month of Burgers
Greek turkey burgers are a tasty, welcome change from ordinary burgers. Enjoy them with couscous and tabouleh.
Greek Turkey Burgers
Turkey burgers are great in the summertime because of their light flavor. They are also pretty good for keeping your summer figure as they have less fat than beef. Of course, if you don’t have ground turkey available, ground beef would work for these burgers as well.
Feta cheese is a Greek brined white cheese made from sheep’s milk or a combination of sheep and goat milk. Crumbly with a slightly grainy texture, it is formed into large blocks and aged in brine. Its flavor is tangy and salty, ranging from mild to sharp. Although Feta is a mild cheese, some prefer a less salty variety. French Feta cheese is less salty than its Greek forebearer.
The yogurt used in the sauce is plain yogurt we made using a sous vide immersion cooker. Mixed with mayonnaise and white pepper, it makes a light sauce perfect for these burgers. You can use whatever buns you like. If you don’t want to use buns, feel free to put your Greek turkey burgers in Pita bread.
My good friend gave me some tabouleh, easily the best I have ever had. We will be featuring that recipe soon. Anyway, what goes better with tabouleh than Greek Turkey Burgers and some curried couscous?
These burgers are great for the summer, on the outdoor grill, or on an indoor cast iron griddle. Use your favorite Feta cheese. There are many varieties available, my favorite is French. Of course, if you don’t like Feta cheese, you could substitute your favorite cheese instead. Don’t be afraid of putting mint, it’s not going to taste like peppermint candy.
Chicken with Red Pepper Sauce
Chicken with red pepper sauce is a wonderful dish, warm and spicy. It’s also really easy to make, and a makes a good dinner on a busy weeknight.
Secret Garlic Sauce – Toum
Secret garlic sauce is not a secret. It’s my easy version of the famous Toum, a garlic sauce common to the Levant.
