I think this would work very well with chicken:

I have made this recipe but I don’t remember what I used.

The Parsi burgers from My Bombay Kitchen are great with chicken. I usually have them sans bun, with raita.
Niloufer Ichaporia King jams this burger full of moisture and flavor with a mess of herbs, alliums, ginger, and chiles. This recipe is a surprising delight.

Aubergine:
The recipe was in Gourmet Magazine May 2002. Epicurious offers the recipe if you sign up … I did not. So, I’ll list the ingredients then paraphrase.
**1 1/2 lb skinless boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
1 8 oz can whole water chestnuts, rinsed and drained
1 bunch scallions, chopped (1 cup)
1 teaspoon minced fresh jalepeno chile, including seeds (instead, I use 3 serranos, leave seeds in 1)
2 Tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
(I add 3-4 cloves of minced garlic … a teaspoons of shredded ginger might be good too)
wooden skewers (I omit, just make patties)
**
Pulse chicken in food processor until coarse then transfer to a bowl. Add water chestnuts, scallions,chiles & garlic to processor, pulse till well chopped. Add to bowl along with cilantro & salt. Form 18 patties. Add oil to nonstick skillet, when hot add about half of patties and pan fry about 3 minutes per side. They make nice little sliders with Hawaiian rolls.
That sounds great, and I’m sure everyone would love them on Hawaiian rolls.

That’s been in my recipe box forever!! If we weren’t so ground-meated out after last week’s mapo tofu, lamb pasta, and pad pra pao I would make that this week. Maybe next week

I’ve only made small batches as per recipe, and do it with a mortar & pestle, which requires some serious elbow grease. Do you use an electric grinder?

You can flag your own post and alert the mods.
Yes, I use my coffee grinder.

Assuming it doesn’t leave as much residue as, say… dried shrooms, yes?
I have an earlier version of this KitchenAid grinder that I basically only use for spices, etc. and I love that its stainless cup and blade a) holds a decent amount and b) goes in the dishwasher.
But as for grinding rice, it does produce residue, which you can wipe out, but it’s very neutral. (That’s why grinding rice is recommended as a way to clean coffee grinders of other residue/odors).

My favorite soup recipe for using ground chicken (gift link):
The majority of shortcut chicken soup recipes use rotisserie chicken It’s a convenient hack, but cooked chicken doesn’t absorb flavors very well On the other hand, sautéing ground chicken in olive oil with garlic, coriander and celery seeds (or...
