Sink your teeth into a juicy burger that's bursting with flavors and colors. These beetroot feta burgers are a work of art, combining the earthy sweetness of beets with the tangy creaminess of feta.

Instructions

1
To a large bowl, add the beetroot, sweet potato, salt, black pepper, garlic granules, smoked paprika, lemon zest, coriander, tahini, feta, eggs, and breadcrumbs. Mix until thoroughly combined. You should achieve a wet, sticky mixture that should just about come together when formed into a burger.
2
Next place a large frying pan over a low-medium heat and add around 1 cm (½ in) of oil. You need enough oil so the burgers are at least halfway covered with the oil when they are in the pan.
3
Once the oil is warm, cook the burgers for around 5 minutes per side or until cooked through and golden brown on the outside. Remove from the pan and drain excess oil on kitchen paper.
4
To prepare the tzatziki, add the Greek yoghurt, cucumber, garlic, mint, lemon juice, black pepper, and salt to a bowl and mix thoroughly. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
5
Place your beetroot patty onto a burger bun, top with tzatziki and rocket salad.

Enjoy!
