Turkey Patties a la Dolmades
__________________________________________________________________________
From member JanetJek This
recipe started life as a Dolmades recipe from a book called Greek Moods &
Menus by Elvira Monroe and Theoni Pappas.
Since I couldn’t find NSA grape leaves and needed another variation on
turkey patties, here’s what I came up with.
These patties bring back memories of the taste of the Dolmades from the
original recipe.
- 1.25 lb ground turkey
breast
- 1 teaspoon dried mint
(or more to taste)
- Juice of 1 lemon (about
¼ cup)
- 1/3 cup scallions (green
onions) sliced (maybe about 6 thin ones)
- ¼ cup chopped parsley
(I used curly leaf)

Sprinkle mint on
turkey, then pour lemon juice over it. Let sit for 10 minutes or more. Mix
in other ingredients into patties. Cook
your favorite way. I bake mine for about 9 minutes at 350 degrees, with
convection.
A variation (which I
haven’t tried yet) would be to make it as turkey crumble and mix it with
rice. I would increase all non-turkey ingredients for this
variation. Or mix it with the rice and
make turkey/rice patties.
