BEET BURGER RECIPE
4 Tablespoons vegetable oil (or oil of choice)
1 medium yellow onion, diced
salt and freshly ground pepper
2 cups cook brown rice, cooled
1 cup beets, peeled and diced (about 1 large)
1 cup pecans (or nuts of choice)
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
2 large eggs
Heat a pan over medium heat and add 2 Tablespoons of the oil. Add the onions with salt and pepper and sauté until slightly golden. Set aside to cool. In a food processor, add the brown rice, beets, nuts, raisins and granulated garlic. Pulse about 10 times until a nice course texture. Transfer to a bowl and stir in cooled onions and the eggs. Stir in 1 teaspoon salt and some pepper. Shape into 4-6 patties.
Heat a skillet over medium high heat and add 2 teaspoons of oil. Gently add the patties to the pan and sear on each side until crisp and browned - approximately 10 minutes per side.
Serve on your favourite bun with your choice of toppings and some tzatziki or a garlic aioli.
These would make very nice appetizers when shaped into bite size mini burgers and served with a selection of sauces or dips.
Enjoy.
