In this post I bring you healthy options of my favourite fast foods each recipe serves 4.
Mushroom Sliders
Ingredients
Buns & Filling
8 Large Mushrooms
1 Spanish Onion
4 Gherkins
2 Tomatoes
4 Butter Lettuce Leaves
3 Baby Beetroot Grated
2 Tbs Mayonaise
Beef Paddy
500g Minced Meat
2 Tbs Dried Oregano
1 Tbs Dried Chilly (or more if you like it spicy)
1Tbs Garlic Powder
1 Brown Onion (finely diced)
Salt & Pepper to taste
Vegy Paddy
2 Eggs
2 Egg Whites
1 Small Sweet Potato
2 Medium Potatoes
1 Medium Zucchini
1/2 flat leaf Parsley
1/2 Tbs chilly flakes
3 Tbs Quinoa flower
1 Tsp Baking powder
2 Tsp Coconut butter
Salt & Petter to taste
Preparation
Beef Paddy - Mix all the ingredients for the in a large bowl. Once mixed well make palm sized paddies and set aside.
Veggy Paddy - Grate the potatoes & zucchini and place in a pot with water to cover. Once the water boils drain the potatoes & zucchini (really well). You may want to put it all onto a paper towel to a make sure all the water is gone. Now mix all the ingredients in a large bowl, the consistency you are looking for is like pancake better that has bits in it ;)
Heat a frying pan with the coconut butter. Once hot place the better in the frying pan the paddies should be the size of your palm. Cook on both sides until golden brown and set aside.
Sliders - Cut the mushroom stem out, slightly salt each up and place on the BBQ. Slice the Onion and sauté on the BBQ. The mushrooms are done when the cup is filled with water at which point you need to take it off the grill. The onions are done when they become translucent. Now all you need to do is stack.
Stacking order: Mushroom cup, butter lettuce, tomato, sliced gherkins, beef/veggie paddy, Mayo, onion, baby beetroot, Mushroom cup.
