Ingredients
- 1 sweet potato roasted, medium sized
- ½ cup brown rice , uncooked (1-1/2 cups cooked rice)
- 3 tablespoons oat flour
- ½ cup basil chopped, lightly packed fresh
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon cumin ground
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 teaspoon salt or to taste, sea salt
Instructions
- Using a fork, poke several holes into a sweet potato, wrap it in foil, and roast it in the oven until it’s very soft, about 50 to 60 minutes.
- While potato is cooking, prepare the brown rice by following the instructions on your packaging. You will need 1-1/2 cups of cooked brown rice, which is about 1/2 cup dry.
- When the potato is cool enough to handle, chop it into thirds, add it to a blender or food processor and blend until completely smooth (if you don't have a blender, you can also mash the potato by hand using a fork).
- Add the potato puree, cooked rice and the remaining ingredients to a medium sized mixing bowl and mix to combine.
- If possible, refrigerate the mixture prior to cooking as it is easier to form burger patties after refrigeration. The mixture may be sticky depending on the size of your sweet potato and this is perfectly fine.
- Form 3 to 4 veggie burger patties out of the sweet potato mixture. Add enough oil to a cast iron skillet to cover the bottom. Heat the skillet to medium high. Carefully place burger patties on hot skillet and allow them to cook until a nice crisp forms and the sides begin to turn color, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Very carefully flip the patties onto the other side and cook until the other side has a nice crisp and the patties have firmed up a bit, about another 3 to 4 minutes.
- Serve the patties with your favorite toppings, such as tomato, avocado, onion, spring green mix and your favorite sauce.
Notes
- *You can make oat flour by grinding up rolled oats in a food processor or blender. You can also skip the oat flour and simply add rolled oats. I would venture to guess ½ to ¾ cup would make sense.
- **You can substitute basil for cilantro or omit the fresh herbs altogether.
- Nutrition facts are calculated for the sweet potato veggie burgers only (not including any toppings or bun).
