Best Homemade Burgers With Sweet Potato Wedges Recipes

BEAN-KALE BURGERS WITH SWEET POTATO WEDGES

Steps:

• Place a baking sheet on the bottom rack of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F.
• Combine the kale and beans in a medium bowl and mash until the beans almost form a paste. Add the cheese, peanuts, 2 tablespoons of the cornmeal, 1/2 teaspoon salt, some pepper and the egg white. Form into four patties about 1/2-inch thick. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes. (Can be made ahead and refrigerated overnight.)
• Toss the sweet potatoes with 1 tablespoon of the oil and the curry powder. Arrange in a single layer on the preheated baking sheet and bake until soft and golden in some spots, tossing about halfway through, 18 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil in a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium heat. Put the remaining 3 tablespoons cornmeal onto a plate. Dredge both sides of the burgers in the cornmeal. Cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the burgers reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 5 minutes.
• Spread each burger with 1/2 tablespoon of the mayonnaise. Build the burgers on the English muffins with lettuce, tomatoes and onions if desired. Divide among four dinner plates along with the sweet potatoes. Divide the yogurt and peaches among four small bowls and serve on the side.

HOMEMADE BURGERS WITH SWEET POTATO WEDGES

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the onion for about 5 mins or until soft. Leave to cool slightly. When cool, put the onion in a large bowl with the mince, egg, bashed crackers, chilli, garlic, ketchup and brown sauce, and mix well to combine. Divide the mince into 6, roll into balls and flatten each into a nice fat burger.
• Put the flour on a plate, dab each burger to the flour on both sides, then transfer to a baking tray. Wrap with cling film and pop in the fridge for a couple of hours.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. To make the wedges, put the sweet potato on a baking tray and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with paprika, season, then give them a good shake or shuffle around with your hands to make sure they're well coated. Roast for 30-40 mins depending on how crisp you like them. Make sure you give them a good shake a couple of times to ensure they cook evenly.
• When the wedges have been cooking for 10 mins, drizzle the burgers with a little olive oil and put them in the oven to cook with the wedges for the remaining 20-30 mins, flipping them halfway. 5 Serve the burgers in the rolls with your choice of toppings, and a good helping of wedges on the side.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Zap the sweet potato wedges in the microwave for about 6 mins on full power until just turning soft. Leave to rest for 30 secs.
• While the sweet potato is spinning in the microwave, mix the mince in a bowl with the onion, garlic, egg and apple. Get your hands stuck in and work the ingredients together with a good pinch of salt and pepper, the oregano and paprika. Shape the mixture into two burgers about 3cm thick. Place on a lined baking tray in the oven for 20-25 mins, turning half way through cooking, until cooked through.
• Heat the coconut oil in a large frying pan over a high heat.

• Serve the burgers with the sweet potato wedges and a portion of green veg either steamed, blanched or boiled.
