Dinner tonight 3/10/2010

East Meets West Burgers - I'm not sure where I found this, maybe at www.eatsathome.com

The recipe for this week is East Meets West Burgers. I altered the recipe just a bit, using tortillas instead of buns.
Here’s what you’ll need:
• 1 lb. lean ground beef
• 4-5 Tbs. Hoisin Sauce, plus more to top burgers
• (Homemade Hoisin Sauce)

4 T of soy sauce (La Choy and Tamari-wheat free are GF)
2 T peanut butter
1 T molasses or honey
2 chopped garlic cloves
2 t sesame oil
1 t hot sauce (I used Thai red chili paste; Tabasco or similar would work)
1/8 t ground black pepper
• 1 cup slaw mix
• 1 tsp. rice vinegar
• 1 tsp. vegetable oil
• large flour tortillas
In a bowl, combine the Hoisin Sauce and ground beef, mixing well with your hands. Form into small patties. I made 6 small (slider size) burgers with this. Grill until done.
Mix the oil and vinegar into the cup of slaw mix. To serve, spread Hoisin Sauce in the middle of a flour tortilla. Place a burger on top. Add slaw and fold the tortilla over, placing it with the folds down on the plate. Cut this diagonally. It’s a bit like a giant pot sticker or dumpling.

We really liked this unique asian burger idea especially the dipping sauce.
