Baked turkey patties with yogurt dip

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

1. Prepare the turkey mixture

   Finely chop the onion, press the garlic, and chop the parsley. In a bowl, combine the ground turkey with the egg, rolled oats, onion, garlic, paprika, parsley, salt, and pepper. Let the mixture rest for 10 minutes so the oats can absorb the moisture.

2. Shape the patties

   Preheat the oven to 200 °C (400 °F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and brush the paper with the oil. With damp hands, shape the turkey mixture into 16 small patties and place them on the baking sheet.

3. Bake

   Bake for 18–20 minutes, turning the patties halfway through. They are done when the internal temperature reaches 74 °C (165 °F), or when they are white all the way through when cut open and the juices run clear.

4. Prepare the dip

   Coarsely grate the cucumber, sprinkle with salt, and let it sit briefly, then squeeze out the juice with your hands. Mix with the yogurt, pressed garlic, dill, and lemon juice.

5. Serve

   Serve the patties warm or cold with the yogurt dip.

Tip: Packaged ground turkey is often made from thigh meat and contains more fat than breast meat; check the label for details. Store the baked patties in a sealed container in the refrigerator for three days.
