TURKEY PATTIES

SPICY JUICY TURKEY PATTIES

These patties are smaller than regular patties. They are flavorful and juicy and they are an any-time snack.

You can make 25 patties from a 3 pound ground turkey meat.

It is also a great meal with salad for those who follow a keto diet.

It goes well with any kind of chutney or sauce.

1 teaspoon garam masala

PREPARATION

In a deep bowl add all the cut onions, cilantro, minced chili, spices, garlic paste, mayo and eggs and mix them well.
Add the ground turkey to this mixture and mix well by hand.
Make hand sized balls and keep on a plate.

In a smaller bowl add the gram flour or coconut flour and add the xanthan gum and mix it well.
Now heat a shallow frying pan on the stove to medium high heat and add 4 tablespoons of cooking oil.
