Ingredients | Cucumber Recipes Indian Style

4 large unpeeled garlic cloves

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon ground coriander

¾ teaspoon ground cumin

¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

⅛ teaspoon ground cloves

1 ¼ pounds ground turkey

1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry

2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger

1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced

½ large cucumber, sliced thin

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

¼ cup Major Grey Chutney

4 small (4 inch) pita breads

Directions

Set garlic in a small skillet over medium-high heat; toast until spotty brown, about 5 minutes. Peel, mince and set aside.

Mix salt, pepper, coriander, 1/2 tsp. cumin, cinnamon and cloves in a small bowl.

Break up turkey in a medium bowl; add garlic, spinach, spice mixture, ginger and jalapeno; stir lightly with a fork to combine. Divide turkey mixture into 4 portions. Toss meat back and forth between cupped hands to form a ball. Pat with fingertips to flatten to about 4 1/2 inches wide. Refrigerate.

Mix cucumber, lime juice, 1/4 tsp. cumin and salt to taste in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

For charcoal grill: Build a hot fire on one side of grill. Replace rack. When coals are covered with white ash, add burgers. Cover and cook, turning only once, until done, about 5 minutes per side.

Grill pitas until spotty brown and warm, a minute or so per side. Split crosswise. Place a burger on each of 4 pita halves. Top with cucumbers and chutney, then remaining pita halves.

About 20 minutes before serving, preheat grill with all burners on high for about 10 minutes. Use a wire brush to clean rack, then use tongs to wipe a rag soaked in vegetable oil over it. Close lid and let reheat. Add burgers; cook, covered, about 5 minutes per side for medium-well.
