-
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
baking tray in the oven for 15-20 mins until cooked
through.
-
Heat the oil in a large frying
pan over a high heat. Add the sweet potato wedges and
shallow-fry for about 3 mins each side until they are
nicely browned all over and cooked through to the centre.
(Alternatively, toss in the oil and roast in the oven for
15-20 mins.) Drain on kitchen paper, then season with a
good pinch of salt.
-
Serve the burgers with the
sweet potato wedges and a portion of green veg either
steamed, blanched or boiled.
