Beetroot Burgers
There are soooo many recipes out there for plant-based burgers, and you know what… most of them don’t work out! They taste awful or don’t stick together. This one though… this one actually works and is full of texture and flavour!!!
Ingredients: (Makes 4 small patties/2 big ones)
270g uncooked beetroot (2 raw beetroots)
2 spring onions
40g mature cheddar cheese (grated)
50g feta cheese
1.5 refill tubes of Strawberry & Raspberry ProMix (90g)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons finely chopped mint
60g porridge oats
Juice of half a lemon
Method:
1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees
2. Scrub and grate the beetroot. Finely chop the spring onions, grate the cheddar and crumble the feta.
3. Heat the oil in the pan and add the beetroot and spring onions. Cook for about 5 mins over a medium heat, stirring.
4. Put the beetroot mixture into a medium bowl with both the cheese, mint, ProMix, oats and the lemon juice. Mix well using your hands. Add some black pepper and a pinch of salt. Form into burger shaped patties.
5. Place the patties on a baking tray lined with greaseproof paper (or use one of our silicone Bake-at-Home trays if you have one) and bake for 25 minutes, turning them halfway through. (Oven temperatures vary, so keep an eye on them for the last 5 minutes)
Serve as you wish – can put it in a bun if you like, but great with rice, salad and some Raita Sauce…
Raita Sauce – just blend the following together
125g natural yogurt
2 teaspoons of fresh mint
A little bit of diced cucumber (about 1cm is fine)
Pinch of salt
Juice of half a lemon
