How to make the Keto Burger?

First of all, we will start with the preparation of the minced meat. You can choose between pork or beef. Don’t be afraid of some fat in the meat as the keto diet welcomes some saturated fat whenever you combine it correctly with the other ingredients in your diet. In addition, if you opt for lean meat, the burger may not come out juicy enough. As such, 80/20 is a great ratio between lean and fatty meat for an intense taste and a juicy texture.

So, finely chop a white shallot and add it to the minced meat. Season the meat with all your favorite spices. In this sense, add salt and pepper to taste, smoked paprika, ground coriander, and Italian seasoning. Matter-of-factly, you can abstract from the amount of spices. That is, you can make the meat more or less seasoned, depending on your taste preferences. After combining all the ingredients well, leave the minced meat aside until you prepare the sauce and cabbage. This will allow the meat to absorb all the spices for more intense flavoring notes.

How to prepare the cabbage?

Now it’s time to start preparing the cabbage. This step is probably the simplest of the whole recipe. All you have to do is cut the cabbage into rondelles. Watch the recipe video above for more detailed instruction. Place a pice of parchment paper on the bottom of the air fryer, this will keep the shape of the cabbage rings. With the help of a brush, lightly grease the parchment paper with a little olive oil. Then, place the cabbage round on the bottom of the air fryer. Now it’s time to season the cabbage. In this sense, sprinkle it with a little salt and pepper to taste to intensify its flavor.

How to make the sauce?

The topping of your health-friendly burger will complement the dish with juiciness and versatility. Thanks to this, the keto burger will remind you of an authentic one, making you lick your fingers. All you have to do is chop the spring onion and the dill. In a small bowl, mix the tomato paste with the Greek yogurt or sour cream, whichever you opt for. Then, add the chopped onion and dill, mixing all the ingredients well. Finally, season the sauce with salt and pepper to your own taste. In fact, you can also add any other spicing you like.

Assemble the burger together:

The minced meat has already been soaked with all the spices by this time. Now you have to form equal patties from it with a diameter approximately that of the cabbage rings. Patties should be neither too thick nor too thin. As such, add meat to them depending on how full-bodied you want your keto burger to be.

Make sure to cover the entire surface of the burger so that the sauce spreads evenly on it. Thus, the sauce will increase the intensity of the taste and harmonize perfectly with the meat cutlet. Finally, the keto burger is ready to fry a little in the air fryer. Heat the tool up to 370 F and air fry the delicious burger for 12-15 minutes.
