Low Fat Thai Turkey Sausage

1 pound ground turkey
1/4 pound green beans, ends and strings removed, minced
8 green onions, ends trimmed, minced
1 (5- to 8-inch) stalk fresh lemon grass, tough outer layers, stem end and coarse leaves removed, minced
1 large egg
3 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
2 to 3 teaspoons fresh serrano chiles, stemmed, seeded and finely minced
2 tablespoons Asian fish sauce (see note)
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon sugar
About 2 tablespoons olive oil

Mix turkey well with beans, onions, lemon grass, cilantro, chiles (use less for milder flavor), fish sauce, egg, cornstarch and sugar. Shape into 16 patties, each 1/2-inch thick.

Pour oil into 10- to 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add a few patties, without crowding. Cook until brown on each side and no longer pink in center (cut to test), about 7 minutes total. Drain on paper towels; add more patties to pan and repeat process.

When patties are cool, freeze in single layer in metal pan until hard, then seal airtight in resealable plastic freezer bags.

Makes 8 (2-patty) servings
