  • Breadcrumbs - 50 grams
  • Onion - 1 small, finely chopped
  • Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
  • Parsley - 2 tablespoons, chopped
  • Cumin - 1 teaspoon
  • Paprika - 1 teaspoon
  • Salt - 1 teaspoon
  • Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Egg - 1 large
  • Baked potatoes - 2 medium
  • Butter - 20 grams
  • Yogurt - 100 grams
  • Cheddar cheese - 50 grams, grated
  • Pickles - 2, sliced
  • Burger buns - 2

Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) for the baked potatoes.
  2. Wash the potatoes thoroughly and prick them with a fork. Bake in the preheated oven for about 40 minutes or until tender.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef (or lamb), breadcrumbs, chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped parsley, cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, and egg. Mix until well combined.
  4. Shape the mixture into two equal-sized patties.
  5. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a little oil. Cook the patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and browned.
  6. Once the potatoes are baked, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Cut them open and fluff the insides with a fork. Add butter and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. To assemble the burgers, place a köfte patty on each bun, add a generous spoonful of yogurt, some grated cheddar cheese, and sliced pickles. Top with the fluffy baked potato.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy your unique Kumpir Köfte Burger!
