The Famous Features team doesn’t just sell stories to newspapers and magazines, we cook glorious food for our families too! Famous Features editor, Sally Windsor, shares some Christmas cooking tips. Perfect if you’ve got little ones…
(ps. our latest media requests are coming soon. Watch this space, or follow our twitter account at http://twitter.com/StoryRequests
If like me, you’ve got a toddler who loves eating burgers and cooking them, this recipe is a great way to avoid the endless leftover dry turkey, but stay Christmassy and relatively mess-free. Perfect for us working mums!
Having first experimented on lamb and feta burgers, these perfect patties were a hit with my cooking-mad daughter Ruby, almost three. The kids will love these, and for the grown ups, Organic turkey meat is much lower in fat than normal burgers too.
Ingredients
500g turkey mince (organic)
½ red onion , grated
1 garlic clove , crushed
1 egg yolk
1 tbsp sunflower oil
4 burger buns
Cranberry sauce to serve
Serves 4
Preparation and cooking times
Prep 10 mins
Cook 10 mins
In a large bowl, mix together the turkey mince, onion, and egg yolk with a little salt and pepper. Combine well with your hands, then shape into 4 flat burger patties.
Heat the oil in a frying pan over a high heat, then cook the burgers for 5 mins each side or until cooked through. Toast the cut sides of the burger buns. Place the salad on the bottom halves of the warm buns, then top with the burgers and dollop of Cranberry sauce.

Birthdays!
By Sally Windsor, FF Editor.
Today is my mum Brenda’s 70th birthday. 70! She had me when she was 40, and I was always the one at school with the older mum. ‘Is that your granny?’ some of the other children used to say to me. But I didn’t mind, in fact – I sort of liked it. It made me feel that my mum was special, which to me, she was of course.
Earlier this year, I celebrated my 30th birthday with more of a whisper than a bang. Not really in the party mood in the snow of January, I settled for a family dinner and a DVD, rock and roll! Mum however, will be having an outdoors party this afternoon in the garden with cupcakes galore. Here’s hoping it will be a birthday to remember, for all the right reasons.
Of course, everyone has had the kind of birthday that has not gone so well. When I was 11, I tripped over and cracked my front tooth. Then there was the neighbour who set their own house on fire – on their 40th birthday. Can you imagine?!? For good or bad, if you’ve had a birthday to remember, why not tell us about it? If it was a day you’ll never forget for all good or bad reasons – we’d love to hear about it.
And if you’ve got a birthday around the corner, have a fabulous day – and don’t forget to send us a cupcake… buttercream icing please!

Festival Fever, by Lorna Gray
What do you think of when you hear the word ‘festival’?
Portaloos? Mudslides? Headline acts? The Great Unwashed? Good times? Or misery?
Love them or hate them, festival season is upon us.
I got my very own festival fix last month when I found myself surrounded by beautiful scenery, knee-deep in mud and watching one of my favourite bands ever. I was at Rockness in the Highlands of Scotland, a little worse for wear and watching Debbie Harry strut her stuff on stage after what had been a fantastic weekend. The traditional Scottish weather could’ve put a damper on the festivities as it poured down the majority of the time but in traditional festival goer fashion, we just got on with it. At one point, I wore every item of clothing I had with me because I was so cold. I looked more Heather from Eastenders than the festival-chic Fearne Cotton I was going for, but at least I was warm.
As veteran festival goers, we knew the tricks of the trade to make the weekend go hitch-free. We were stocked up with babywipes, raincoats and cereal bars. So my friends and I had avoided any sort of festival faux pas but some people aren’t as lucky. Who can forget the infamous ‘poo girl’ as she was cruelly dubbed after being stuck in one of the stanching Portaloos at Leeds festival last year? And you don’t have to walk far to see some unfortunate person having a miserable time due to too much booze.
Or are festivals really the place dreams are made of? Here at Famous Features, we want to hear all about your festival experiences. Have you ever had a life-changing experience on one of those fields? Maybe you met the love of your life… or even a rockstar. Or did your festival plans end up as dried up as last night’s leftover takeaway? Good or bad story, we want to hear about it. Famous Features went down a storm at Glastonbury this year and now, we’d love you to share your festival story in one of the national magazines or newspapers for a great fee.
So get in touch with one of the Famous Features team today by emailing your story to sell-my-story@famousfeatures.co.uk, or call our story hotline: 0845 83 88 55. If you’re lucky enough to have tickets for any of the upcoming festivals, have fun and don’t forget to look out for Famous Features banners!
