Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound ground turkey (I used 99% lean)
1 clove minced garlic
1 1/4 teaspoons ground chipotle chili pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 1/2 cups grated scrubbed (skin-on sweet potato (about 7 1/2 ounces or 2 very small or 1 large))
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Extra virgin olive oil (for cooking the burgers)
100% whole wheat hamburger buns (toasted)
Grated sharp cheddar cheese
Sliced avocado
Prepared salsa
Greek yogurt or sour cream

Steps:

  • Place the ground turkey, garlic, chipotle chili powder, oregano, salt, and black pepper in a large mixing bowl. Lightly mix with your fingers, just until combined. Fold in the grated sweet potato and cilantro. Form the mixture into patties that are about 1/2-inch thick (4 to 6 patties total).
  • Meanwhile, generously drizzle a cast iron pan or other large, non-stick skillet with olive oil and heat over medium. Once hot, place the patties on the skillet and cook for 2 minutes on the first side, flip then cook 1 additional minute. With a cover for the skillet ready in one hand, pour a little water into the skillet, then cover it quickly, being careful as the oil will sputter. Let the burgers cook steam until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Towards the end of the cooking time, top with grated cheddar cheese, then recover and allow the cheese to melt.
  • Serve the burgers on toasted whole wheat buns, topped with sliced avocado, salsa, and sour cream as desired. Enjoy immediately.

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tbsp olive oil , plus extra for drizzling
1 red onion , finely chopped
500g lean minced beef or turkey
1 egg
12 cream crackers, bashed to fine crumbs
2 tsp chilli paste
2 tsp garlic paste
1 tsp each, tomato ketchup and brown sauce
2 tbsp plain flour
6 hamburger rolls , toasted, to serve
toppings of your choice (relish, chutney and salad ), to serve
4 sweet potatoes , cut into wedges
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp paprika

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.
