A healthy, delectable alternative to hamburgers. Easy to make too.
Ingredients:
1 -2 teaspoon sesame oil
3 -4 slices fresh ginger, cut into thin matchsticks
1 cup millet, rinsed and drained
3 cups boiling water
sea salt
1/2 cup diced carrot
1/2 cup onion
1/2 cup celery
fresh parsley, minced (one handful)
1/2 cup cornmeal
Directions:
1. Heat a small amount of sesame oil in a saucepan and saute the ginger for 2-3 minutes with a sprinkling of salt.
2. Add the millet and saute until well-coated with oil and it gives off a nutty fragrance.
3. Add boiling water, season lightly with salt and reduce heat to low.
4. Cover and simmer for 35 minutes.
5. Add veggies, re-cover and simmer for about 5 more minutes.
6. Remove from heat and stir in corn meal.
7. Allow the mixture to stand for 10-15 minutes before forming burgers.
8. Shape millet mixture into thick patties.
9. Heat enough sesame oil in a skillet to pan-fry the burgers.
10. You will need to make the oil about 1/8-inch deep to fry evenly.
11. Fry until golden, about 3 minutes each side.
12. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper.
13. Serve as you would any conventional burger.
