Recipe makes 8 patties
Patties
- 500g premium lean beef mince
- 1 onion, finely diced
- 1 courgette, grated
- 1⁄2 beetroot, grated
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1⁄2 teaspoon curry powder (cumin, coriander, chilli)
- 3 egg whites
Method
1. Preheat oven to 180°C.
2. Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. Form into 8 patties.
3. Heat a heavy-based frying pan until hot and brown the patties on both sides. Place on a baking tray.
4. Bake for 4–5 minutes. Then its a matter of building up your burger with the Awesome Sauce.
I love to use wholemeal buns, crunchy iceberg lettuce, mustard, gherkins and homemade tomato sauce.
