Ham and Mushroom Burger (No Bread Bun) image

This is from our local/state paper and presented by Vince Garreffa a renowned butcher here in Perth Western Australia and most of his recipes usually involve big cuts of meat, though yes there is still meat here in the ham, the photo looked of the burger looked so good and unusual definately not your usual at the best you can say is the mushrooms become the bun. Times are estimated.

Time 30m

Yield 4 burgers, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 garlic cloves (minced)
extra virgin olive oil
salt (organic lake recommended to taste)
fresh ground black pepper (to taste)
8 portabella mushrooms (or large field about 10cm in diameter)
750 g deli ham (finely sliced)
24 basil leaves
12 slices gruyere cheese (about 15 to 20 grams each)
string

Steps:

  • Mix 100ml extra virgin olive oil with garlic and a pinch of salt and pepper and rub the mix over the insides of each mushroom.
  • Place the mushrooms cap side down in a non stick prypan with 2 tablespoons of oil drizzled between the mushrooms to fry for 5 to 10 minutes, colouring the cap side only (DON"T COOK THE GILL SIDE).
  • Rest them with the lid on the pan so that they steam and cool gently and when cool enough to handle, lay one mushroom cap down on a tray and crunch/fold 2 slices ham into it, 2 basil leaves, 1 slice of cheese and then again 2 slices ham, 2 basil, 1 cheese - 2 layers in total, then place the second mushroom on top and secure with string and repeat with other 3 or make an assembly line and do all 4 at once.
  • The burgers can be prepared in advance (1 or 2 days) and then bake at 175C for 10-15 minutes to warm them through and serve them hot - we eat them with a knife and fork but the kids love to use their hands.

This recipe was a disappointment. The burger was dry and tasteless.

This recipe is a good starting point, but I would make some changes next time. I would add some extra sauce or cheese, and I would use less salt.

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either.

I had trouble keeping the burger together. It kept falling apart when I tried to eat it.

The burger was a bit too salty for me. I think I would use less salt next time.

I'm not a big fan of mushrooms, but I loved the way they tasted in this burger. They added a nice savory flavor.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover ham. I had some leftover ham from Easter dinner, and this burger was the perfect way to use it up.

I love that this recipe is low-carb and keto-friendly. The burger was still very satisfying, even without the bun. I'll definitely be making this again!

This burger was a game-changer! I've never had a burger without a bun before, but it was surprisingly delicious. The ham and mushroom combination was perfect, and the cheese melted perfectly. I'll definitely be making this again!
