Pepper Burgers In Tomato Sauce

A colorful burger dish that i came up with because I had one half green pepper and half a red one and I wanted to try something different then my usual random stir fry.

400g ground meat
1/2 red pepper
1/2 green pepper
1 egg
1/2 - 1tsp salt
1/2tsp thyme
1 can of crushed tomatoes (400g)
1/2 pinch powdered cayenne pepper
1-2tbl lemon juice


Chop the peppers into small cubes.

Mix together the meat with the peppers, egg, salt and thyme.

Shape it into burgers about 8cm across and 1cm thick.

Fry them lightly in a large pan, about 2-3 min on each side.

Mix the crushed tomatoes with the cayenne pepper and lemon juice then pour it over the burgers.

Cook for about 8-10 minutes, turning the burgers once.

Serve with rice or pasta.


Enjoy!
