World renowned chefs Paul Bocuse, Thomas Keller, Jean Joho, Joel Robuchon and I have something in common. Nope, certainly not the culinary talent. Then????? What I meant is that I have joined the ranks of these chefs by acquiring the "Staub" line of cookware. A Staub Grill Pan to be specific! Now that the temperature is slowly falling,atleast in the North-east, its a perfect time for me to move the party indoors. So an indoor grill pan that can be used on the stove top and in the conventional oven is perfect choice item for "right now" and "round the year". Thanks to CSN Stores for allowing me to pick this item to write a review about. If by the end of this post you are impressed with this pan, hurry up and get it here as its on sale for $100 bucks.
I don't have to tell about the Staub brand..If you ask someone in the culinary industry this is what they would say -- Le Creuset is for the masses, Staub is for those in the know. Enough said.
So What is so special about this pan?The pan is made with the best durable cast-iron(Pay Attention Vegetarians and Anemic People) with a removable silicone handle. The feature I love the best about this is that it has 2 spouts to drain all the drippings. And most importantly knife resistant. And it gets better and better with use because the oils when used while cooking permeate the minuscule pores and create a natural, smooth non-stick surface. How cool is that?
Now on to the recipe..
Ingredients:
For the Mango-Cucumber Tzatziki/Raita:
Ingredients:
This is how I ate my Burger - With a middle-eastern flair..
Enjoy!
