  The crunch of corn with your favorite salsa makes a delicious,
  lower-fat Southwestern hamburger served on a flour tortilla with
  shredded lettuce and lime wedges.
  
  In a mixing bowl, mix lightly the ground beef, cornmeal, lime juice,
  egg white, cumin, chili powder, salt, pepper and jalapeno. Shape into
  6 large thin patties and reserve on a sheet of wax paper.
  
  Over medium-high heat, heat a 12-inch skillet, then add the oil to
  coat the bottom. Place patties in the hot skillet and cook 3 to 5
  minutes per side, turning once, until the meat is cooked through and
  the patties are a deep golden brown.
  
  Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine corn and salsa and heat. In
  the microwave, heat flour tortillas wrapped in a cloth or on paper
  plates for 15 seconds on high.
  
  To serve, place a cooked patty on a flour tortilla, top with a
  serving of salsa and fold. Add shredded lettuce if desired. Serve a
  wedge of lime alongside.
  
  Note: When preparing fresh chilies, wear rubber gloves for protection
  against oils that later can cause burning sensation on skin.
