Burger with Onion Rings

Smile!

I was surfing American burger joints a few days ago and saw one (it might have been from In n' Out Burgers but not 100%) where they put onion rings on the pattie'burger instead of regular fried onions. Now I was always of the mind that onions were the preferred topping of hot dogs but I could never turn down the chance to cook and taste a new idea. The cheese was extra mature but the burger I used was a veggie type *shock* Not that it mattered because the cheese and onion were the dominant flavours in this burger and I enjoyed it.
Id be interested to see how a fried egg would taste in this combo were I to replace cheese for eggs. Could be onto a winner there come to think about it as the yolk would compliment the battered onions fairly well. *Makes mental note to add egg next*
By the way if like me you are partial to a slice of bread and butter with your chips/fries, pass on it with this meal. I definately will be next time! Tasty burger though, well recommended.

Bunny Burgers

Rabbit burger with pancetta

Rabbit isn't the obvious choice to turn into burgers buttry one and you will be kicking yourself for not having thought of it sooner. Rabbit Burgers are delicious, and much more healthy than beef. Fancy it? Take a peek at this recipe.

Three decent sized bunnies will do the trick.

First joint and bone the animal, then mince it.

Add suet 1/2 box

Bung in some garlic to suit your taste.

Then throw in one Oxo cube, herbs & salt/pepper (again to your own preference)

One diced onion

One egg

Bind and mix together and cook for approx. 15mins

People who never normally eat rabbit are now conformists to these tasty burgers.

The Veggies Have Landed

Without the egg, this is safe for vegetarians

Ok readers of this blog should know by now that its author and Metal Chef is a carnivore. I LOVE meat and am fine if it clogs my arteries and puts fat on my ass. Hey everything has a price right? But occasionaly I do wander into the realm of vegetarians (dont worry, I dont stay too long), in order to mix things up a little.
More often than not its a pretty bland affair on offer but persist and you can find some great grub (food). The vegetarian sausages and burger were passable in the meal above, just be sure you have enough egg yolk, beans and sauces to give it an extra zing.
Suprisingly this was pretty filling and could really set you up for a night behind the ale pumps. Not sure its wise to make this platter too often however. You might find yourself joining Greenpeace and drinking nettle tea.
