BENTO BALLS (AKA FRENCH HAMBURGERS)
My kids and I spend Wednesdays out in the woods either hiking, biking, or letterboxing. We have to take a huge lunch with us and usually it's a Japanese-style bento with onigiri, some protein item, and lots of vegies and pickles. More often than not, my kids will pick this for the protein...it's basically a french hamburger recipe that has been adapted for our bento lunches. Cooking time will vary with how large your patties are. The sauce is a true basting sauce and these will not be in a soupy sort of base. The point of bentos is to make the food as fuss-free to eat as possible. The meat mixture is soft and a bit tricky to work with, but the result is a moist patty that doesn't need condiments and isn't a rubbery hard superball.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and prepare a baking sheet by lining with parchment or foil.
- Lightly coat the parchment or foil with cooking spray.
- Mix the bread crumbs, havarti, horseradish, dried onion, salt (or spice-salt mix), cottage cheese, and egg together in a large bowl. (Please note that the horseradish should be prepared, i.e., the creamy kind that is mixed with mayonnaise. We use the Beaver brand.).
- Allow to stand for 5 minutes to soften the bread crumbs.
- Mix in the ground turkey.
- The meat mixture will be very soft.
- Form the meat into balls that will fit into your bento box(or on your plate).
- Flatten slightly so that the meat is formed into shapes resembling patties.
- Place in the oven to bake for 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the basting sauce by combining the melted butter, ketchup, and soy sauce.
- Carefully turn the patties over and put them back in the oven until 20 minutes before the meat is cooked through.

- The time to finish cooking will depend on how large you made your patties.
- I use a meat thermometer to check for doneness.
- **********.
- Approximately 20 minutes before the meat cooks through, baste one side of the meat with the sauce, returning to the oven for 10 minutes.
- Turn and baste the other side and return to the oven for the remaining 10 minutes.
- Let cool, add to your bento box, and have a great day hiking.

Steps:
- Cook minced onion slowly for 10 minutes in butter, until tender, but not brown. Pour into a mixing bowl. Add the ground beef, additional butter, and seasonings to the onions and beat just until combined. Form into 4 patties, 3/4 inch thick. Cover with wax paper and chill several hours. Just before cooking the patties, gently roll them in the flour. In a large, heavy frying pan, melt butter and oil, bring to a moderately high temperature and add patties. Sear them until they're brown on both sides, then reduce heat until they're done to your liking. This usually takes longer than I think, about 15 minutes. Remove patties to a heated oven. Pour fat out of the pan and add sherry (or other wine), scraping up the pan juices, until it's reduced to a thick syrup. Take off the heat and add the butter (allow butter to melt) and serve in a small pitcher to pour over the patties. I often poke holes in the top of each patty (with a fork) so the sauce will ooze down into the meat. Note: the original recipe calls for red wine, white wine, vermouth or beef stock for the sauce. You can use either red wine, sherry or light port or even Madeira.
