Chicken Burgers with Curry

Today, I went down to Varvakeios Market in Athens to stock up my kitchen with everything it needs. Of course, I also visited the spice shops. They are a treasure trove, offering every spice - and more - you could ever want, along with culinary suggestions and flavor combinations. I love hearing such stories. Unfortunately, due to the mask-wearing era of Covid, I couldn't smell or discern the aroma of each spice. I patiently waited, looking at the colorful spices inside their jars. Once the customers were served, I stayed to chat with the incredibly helpful and knowledgeable salesperson. I focused on curry. Its scent, like a dream, took me back... to the School of Tourism Professions... where, as a child, I had my first taste of chicken with curry. You see, my mother never used curry in her cooking. Since then, whenever I smell curry, the first thing that comes to mind is the school! We all associate certain scents with events or people in our lives. Anyway, without further ado, I bought fresh curry (the one I have at home is old and has lost its potency) to make a recipe with it. Classic curry (with its golden color) pairs perfectly with almost all types of food - from vegetables to fish, meat, poultry, rice, seafood, legumes, even in sauces and dairy products (cream, yogurt, coconut milk, almond milk, etc.). So, I decided to make chicken burgers in the oven with curry since I have chicken mince on hand.

Our Ingredients:

  • 500g chicken mince
  • 2 dried onions, minced
  • 2 cloves of garlic, mashed
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1/2 bunch finely chopped parsley
  • 1 tsp finely chopped coriander
  • 30g olive oil
  • 30g liquid soda
  • 2-3 slices of crusty bread or breadcrumbs (grated rusks)
  • 1 tsp curry powder
  • Salt, pepper, cayenne pepper
