Fast and Easy Dinner: Spiced Burgers With Cucumber Yogurt

From salmon burgers to pork chipotle muenster burgers, I've seen and tried just about everything in between a circular bun.

From salmon burgers to pork chipotle muenster burgers, I've seen and tried just about everything in between a circular bun. So when I flipped open the latest Food Network Magazine to find a recipe for Indian-inspired spiced burgers, I couldn't resist giving them a try.

The South Asian spice that makes this burger so distinctive is curry powder, and it's incorporated directly into the patty before cooking. It lends a warmth to the patty, which is actually fairly lean (it's made of 90 percent lean ground beef).

What keeps the burger moist (and what makes this burger so great) is the complementary condiment: a cucumber raita of sorts, made here with Greek yogurt and cilantro in lieu of chopped mint and the thinner yogurt variety. Keep reading for more, including the spiced burger recipe.

Indian Spiced Burger Recipe

Ingredients

1/2 seedless cucumber, peeled and finely chopped
1/2 cup low-fat plain Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/4 pounds 90 percent lean ground beef
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion

1 1/2 teaspoons red or yellow curry powder
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
4 hamburger buns, split, toasted

Directions

  2. Combine the beef, onion, garlic, curry powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper in a bowl and mix with your hands until just combined. Form into four 4-inch-wide patties, about 1/2 inch thick.

Burger or Not a Burger?

It's National Burger Month, and we find ourselves asking: what makes a burger a burger?

It's National Burger Month, and we find ourselves asking: what makes a burger a burger? Is it the bun? Or the patty? Must it be made with ground beef, or can it be any kind of ground meat or protein? It all depends on how you define "burger," which is truly an existential question for our modern foodie times. Before we get bogged down in a highbrow burger debate, let's do this the easy way: click through the gallery of burgers and cast your vote on which should be considered a true burger and which ones are undeserving of the title.

5 Burger Toppings Inspired by Burger Bash

It was just a week ago that we were chomping down on burgers at Rachael Ray's Burger Bash in South Beach, where we tried just about every topping imaginable on a burger, from Morimoto's braised pork and wagyu beef to Guy Fieri's secret donkey sauce. Seven days later, we're still dreaming of those patties, and hoping to re-create some of them at home. Here are several things we're hoping to try on our own burgers at home.

Brick cheese spread
Give the burger a further nod to nostalgic Americana by adding creamy, dreamy brick cheese spread. Keep it honest and go for one made by one of Wisconsin's cheese artisans, like Abe & Arthur's did.

Bacon mixed into the beef patty
Tons of restaurants were doing this, from Shake Shack to Chicago's NoMI Kitchen (served with a spiked watermelon slice, no less!). We were most fond of applewood-smoked bacon coarsely chopped into the beef patty, then served with cherry pepper relish, as seen in Danny Meyer's SmokeShack burger.

See the rest.

On the Scene at Rachael Ray's Burger Bash

Without a doubt, the biggest event at the South Beach Wine and Food Festival is Rachael Ray's annual Burger Bash. The event was bigger and badder than ever, with 32 burgers from top restaurants and chefs across the country. It was also incredibly loud, hot, sweaty, sandy, and chaotic; frankly, we're not sure how we survived it. But we did eat some stellar burgers: read on to see who served what, and — of course — who won the coveted Burger Bash prizes!
