Eunice Power's airy-fryer beetroot burgers: Today

Ingredients

  • 500g pickled beetroot from a jar drained
  • 400g tin chickpeas drain
  • Small handful of fresh mint and coriander
  • 1 red onion, chopped
  • 1 carrot peeled and grated
  • 2 garlic cloves grated
  • 1 large egg
  • 40g porridge oars
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Juice of ½ lemon
  • 150g crumbled feta
  • Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Brioche buns or Blaas to serve.

Method

  1. Dry the beetroot with kitchen paper – you don't want the patties too wet.
  2. In a food processor, blitz all the burger ingredients except the feta, then crumble in the feta. Shape the mixture into 4 burgers.
  3. Preheat the air fryer to 200C rub the burgers with oil and cook for 10-12 minutes so they are nice and crispy, turning halfway if required.
  4. Serve the burgers in Blaas with your preferred sides. I love pickled cucumber, sour cream, avocado and rocket.
