Danish Burgers With Herb Caper Sauce And A Mod Salad Food

DANISH MEATBALL BURGERS WITH PICKLED RED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Make the pickled cabbage: Combine the vinegar, sugar and 1 teaspoon salt in a medium saucepan. Add the cabbage and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat; simmer until the cabbage is brightly colored and tender, about 30 minutes. Remove from the heat; stir in the jam.
• Meanwhile, make the remoulade: Mix the mayonnaise, mustard, relish, capers, curry powder, turmeric and 1 teaspoon minced onion in a small bowl (reserve the remaining onion). Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Make the patties: Combine the beef, half-and-half, breadcrumbs, nutmeg, remaining minced onion, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl and combine with your hands. Form the mixture into six 3/4-inch-thick patties.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add 3 patties to the skillet; cook until browned, 4 minutes. Flip and cook until cooked through, about 5 more minutes. Top each burger with a slice of cheese; cover and cook until melted, 1 minute. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, burger patties and cheese. Spread the remoulade on the top buns. Sandwich with the burgers and pickled cabbage.

DANISH BURGERS WITH HERB CAPER SAUCE AND A MOD SALAD

Steps:

• In a bowl, thoroughly combine the ground chicken, poultry seasoning, shallots, Dijon mustard, mushrooms, Havarti, salt, and pepper. Score the meat with your hand into 4 equal portions. Form each portion into a large 1-inch-thick patty.
• Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Drizzle EVOO over the patties and place them in the hot skillet. Cook for 6 minutes per side until the patties are firm to the touch and cooked through.
• While the burgers are cooking prepare the herb caper sauce and mod salad. In a small bowl combine the mayonnaise or sour cream, dill, and capers. Set aside. In a salad bowl combine the cucumbers, red onion, plum tomatoes, and three quarters of the baby spinach. Dress the salad with white wine vinegar, salt, and pepper, then drizzle with a couple tablespoons of EVOO to coat the salad lightly and evenly. Toss to combine and adjust the salt and pepper to your taste.
• Split the rolls. Place the burgers on the bun bottoms. Top with sliced radishes, the remaining baby spinach, and a heaping spoonful of the herb-caper dressing slathered across the bun tops. Add the remaining sauce to the salad and toss for a creamy finish. Fancy chips finish the plate.
• The colder the semisoft Havarti with dill cheese is, the easier it will be to dice. Pop the cheese in the freezer while you prep everything else. Because of the fat content of the cheese, just 10 minutes in a deep freeze makes the dicing a real breeze!
