How To Make Beetroot Burger?
You can use fresh beets that still have to be cooked to make the beetroot burger. Then peeled and grated. You can also use fresh cooked beets in vacuum-packed foil (these are usually with the fresh vegetables) or fresh beets from a jar. These are also tasty and healthy and it is so easy.
Preparation Time: 6 minutes Cooking Time: 10 minutes
Nice to know:
- Buns: often the beetroot burger is served with a hard bun. If you eat the beet burger out of hand, this is difficult to eat. It is then easier to buy the soft hamburger buns, which are suitable for snacking.
- Paprika powder: If you are in possession of smoked paprika, take this smoked paprika instead of regular paprika. This does not add a little more flavor to the burger.
- When using a grill pan get a grill taste. However, you can also fry them in a frying pan with a little butter. Do not use oil foil because it will splatter.
- If the beet mixture for the burger is still too moist and loose in texture, add more oatmeal and let the burgers rest for a while.
- You probably won’t use all the avocado. Store the leftover avocado in a glass of water and refrigerate.
