Time 1h

Yield Eight 4.5-ounce patties or six 6-ounce patties

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 pound ground turkey, preferably light meat
1 pound roasted mushroom base
1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced or pureed
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons chopped mint or dill
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
Salt to taste
1 teaspoon baharat (see below)
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon cayenne (more to taste)
1 egg
1 to 2 tablespoons canola or grapeseed oil for the pan
Hamburger buns (preferably whole wheat), lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and the usual burger fixings
Baharat
2 tablespoons black peppercorns
2 tablespoons allspice berries
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
optional: paprika, coriander seeds, sumac, cardamom seeds

Steps:

To make the baharat, grind the peppercorns, allspice berries, and cumin seeds to a powder in an electric spice mill. Stir in the cinnamon and nutmeg. Store in a spice jar, away from light and heat.
In a large bowl, mix together the turkey, mushroom base, onion, garlic, chopped herbs, salt, baharat, cayenne and egg. Form 6 to 8 patties and place them on a plate or a lightly oiled sheet pan. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment. Heat 1 or 2 large, heavy skillets over medium-high heat and add enough oil to lightly coat the bottom (about 1 tablespoon). When the pans are hot, add the patties and cook for 4 minutes on each side. Transfer to the parchment-lined sheet pan and place in the oven for 7 to 8 minutes. Remove from the oven, let sit for a couple of minutes, and serve.

Time 2h55m

Yield 4 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing the grill grates
2 cups cremini mushrooms, finely chopped
1/4 cup finely chopped shallots
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 1/4 pounds ground turkey (dark meat preferred)
1/2 cup Greek yogurt, plus extra for the buns
1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs
1 large egg, beaten
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 brioche buns, split and toasted
4 slices ripe tomato
16 thin cucumber slices

Steps:

Add the oil to a medium skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the mushrooms and cook, without stirring, until the undersides are browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir and let brown on the other side, about 2 minutes, then reduce the heat to medium and add the shallots and garlic. Cook and stir until the shallots are softened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, then cool the mixture.
Combine the turkey, yogurt, breadcrumbs, egg and cooled mushrooms in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Mix together lightly with a wooden spoon just to combine; don't overmix. Form into four 1-inch-thick patties. Refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours and up to overnight.
Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Sprinkle the outsides of the patties with salt and pepper. Brush the grill grates with oil and grill the burgers until nicely marked, cooked through and the internal temperature reads 155 to 160 degrees F, about 6 minutes per side. Serve on the buns with additional yogurt, tomato and cucumber slices.
