Ostrich has the flavor and texture like beef but without the fat. Try these burgers for a lean alternative to the regular old hamburger.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound ground ostrich
  • 2 tablespoons onion, finely chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Preparation:

Sauté onion and garlic in olive oil until slightly brown. Combine with other ingredients and form into patties about 1 inch thick. Preheat grill. Place patties on hot grill and cook on each side for 4 to 5 minutes or until done. Serve on buns with your favorite hamburger toppings.
