Ingredients

Indian-Spiced Beet Burgers:
  • 1 large red beet peeled and shredded (3 cups)
  • 2 cups cooked brown rice
  • 1 tablespoon yellow curry powder
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dill
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt or to taste
  • 4 cloves garlic roughly chopped
  • ¼ cup Coconut oil for cooking
Lemon-Dill Yogurt Sauce:
  • 1 1/4 cups plain greek yogurt
  • 1 Tbsp dried dill
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt or to taste
For Serving:

  • 1 large avocado sliced
  • sprouts

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine all ingredients for the lemon-dill yogurt sauce in a small bowl. Stir well and refrigerate until ready to use.
  2. Wash, peel, and chop 1 large (or 2 medium) beet. Place in a food processor and pulse into small rice-sized pieces. Measure out 3 cups of grated beet and save the rest for other recipes.
  3. Add the rice, yellow curry powder, cumin, turmeric, dill, salt, and garlic. Turn your food processor on and process until thick and sticky (you will need to stop and stir the mixture several times).
  4. Add enough oil to a cast iron skillet to generously coat the surface and heat to medium.
  5. Form burger patties out of the beet/rice mixture and place on the hot cast iron skillet. Allow patties to cook 2 to 3 minutes (or until crispy). Carefully flip to the other side and allow them to cook another 2 to 3 minutes.
  6. Serve beet burgers on lettuce of choice with lemon-dill yogurt sauce, thick slices of avocado, and sprouts.
