Healthy Hamburger.

Yesterday I decided to create a hamburger, a healthy one.
After the gym I always take something fast like quark, granola, peanut butter and berries,
yes easy and fast and it stops my sugar cravings. But yesterday I wanted to treat myself with both food and sweets. So here it is!

Gluten free, sugar free, healthy hamburgers! 
(makes 3 servings) 



Hamburger buns ingredients: 
1 cup (250g) quark
50g oat flour (1/3 cup) 
55g buckwheat flour (1/3 cup) (bovetemjöl)
2 tsp psyllium husk (2 tsk fiberhusk)
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tbsp sesame seeds and 1/2 tbsp for topping 
1/2 tsp salt 
1 tsp oregano 
1/2 tsp onion powder
Some stevia drops (alternative) 

Method: Preheat oven to 200 C. 
Mix all ingredients (except the 1/2 tbsp sesame seeds for topping) in a bowl until everything is combined, the dough will be sticky. 
Shape 3 balls with your hands and place on a baking paper on a baking sheet. 
Press down the balls with your hands and make them as thick as you wish and then top with the 1/2 tbsp sesame seeds. 
Put in oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Let cool of on a wire rack. 





Hamburger dressing ingredients: 
2 tbsp quark or greek yoghurt
1/2 tbsp water
1 tsp olive oil
60g cucumber (about 3-4 inch (cm)) 
1/2 - 1 tsp black pepper
3/4 tsp onion powder
2 pinch sea salt
2-3 tbsp tomato puree
2-3 tbsp chopped yellow onion
1 chopped garlic clove  

Method: Mix quark with water and then add olive oil, pepper, onion powder, sea salt and tomato puree. When everything is well combined add coarsely chopped cucumber, coarsely chopped onion and the chopped garlic clove. Taste and if needed add more spices. Let stand in the fridge while you make the burgers. 





Burger/steak ingredients: 
200-230g 10% fat ground beef (nötfärs) 
1/4 cup chopped parsley (1/2 dl hackad persilja) 
1 garlic clove
1/2 tsp salt 
1/2 tsp black pepper 
1 egg

Method: Chop the parsley coarsely.
Mix with the ground beef in a bowl and add the chopped garlic clove, salt and black pepper.
Mix with a fork and make sure everything is well combined. Add the egg and mix well.
Soak your hands with some water and create 3 balls, flatten with your hands and fry in a pan on medium/high heat, greased with eg coconut oil.
