The Fennel Sausage Burger is a deliciously seasoned Italian-inspired burger that combines the bold flavors of fennel and garlic with juicy halal sausage. Served on a toasted bun with fresh toppings, it's a satisfying meal perfect for any time of the day.

Ingredients

• Halal Italian sausage - 250 grams
• Fennel bulb - 1 medium, finely chopped
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Fresh parsley - 2 tablespoons, chopped
• Red pepper flakes - 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Burger buns - 2, halved
• Fresh arugula - 1 cup
• Tomato - 1 medium, sliced
• Mozzarella cheese - 2 slices
• Balsamic glaze - 1 tablespoon (optional)

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the halal Italian sausage, chopped fennel, minced garlic, parsley, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
2. Form the sausage mixture into 2 equal-sized patties, about 2 cm thick.
3. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the patties and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 75°C.
4. In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of mozzarella cheese on each patty to melt.
5. While the patties are cooking, toast the burger buns in a separate skillet or toaster until golden brown.
6. Assemble the burgers by placing a patty on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a handful of fresh arugula, a slice of tomato, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze if desired. Top with the other half of the bun.
7. Serve immediately and enjoy your Fennel Sausage Burger!
