Toblerone's Kitchen: Taco Burger
JoeUser Forums
I had the craving for red meat today but not the motivation to do a steak. So instead I invented the Taco Burger. The recipe for this orgiastic feast of artery clogging delights is below:
The Taco Burger
Serves 3 or one very hungry person (I had two, I was starving)
Ingredients:
500 grams beef mince
3 burger buns
2 shittake mushrooms
2 cloves of garlic
2 Italian tomatoes (though any will do - the adventurous might try drained sun-dried tomatoes)
1 packet of Taco seasoning
1 head of lettuce
1/2 a small onion
Olive Oil (enough to just cover the frying pan)
Thousand Island Sauce to taste
Margarine if you want some extra fat to clog your arteries
Directions:
Dice onion, garlic and shittake mushrooms finely then fry in olive oil until the onions are translucent. Mix onions, mushrooms and packet of Taco seasoning into mince (you might need to add a little water as the taco seasoning tends to dry out the meat). Once these ingredients are thoroughly mixed make the mixture into patties about the size of your burger buns and 1.5 - 2 cm thick (oh come on you know what they look like, if not visit hungry jacks/burger king you utter hermit).
Sear both sides of your patties in oil to seal in the juices and then cook through out.
Spread your burger buns with marg, add your patty, add sliced tomatoes, lettuce and a dollop of Thousand Island Sauce.
There you have it. It takes the best of the taco and the burger and combined it into one. Oh and one of these everyday will almost certainly kill you with cholesterol poisoning - so goodness all ‘round!
Notes:
If you like you can mix your beef mince with pork - though some may need to renounce their religion first.
You might like to add a ton or so more of shittake mushrooms.
Vegetarian alternative:
Eat a fucking salad you hippie!
Freudian interpretation:
This meal may represent a breast fixation or other tendencies as buns are a somewhat suggestive shape. God know what the Thousand Island Sauce means but it probably means you are very sick in the head and should seek help immediately.
