Holy Habanero!

Test Kitchen 31 October 2009 | 0 Comments

I wanted to make a spicy, smoky turkey burger… and wow this turned out all that and more.  Roughly, here’s what I did:

The Burger:

  • Ground turkey
  • salt, pepper
  • mustard (I used stone ground)
  • cumin (maybe 1/4 teaspoon)
  • curry powder (same amt as cumin)

The Topping:

  • Roasted Habanero
  • Roasted Roma Tomato
  • Avocado
  • Gruyere Cheese

To roast the pepper and tomato, you could use a comal (if you have one), or do what I did and put it in a glass dish in your oven on broil.  You want to blacken all sides and then carefully remove the seeds and slice.

Caution: you need very little habanero to make this very spicy.  For two burgers I used just one.

I love the intense heat of the habanero.
