Sweet Potato And Lentil Patties Ingredients

1 400g packet of Burger Mix 1 large sweet potato or equivalent amount of grated veggies (pumpkin, zucchini, potato etc). 2 tins of brown / green lentils 2 tablespoons of coconut flour (or other gf flour) 80 ml oil (olive oil or macadamia work well) 200ml of water Salt & pepper

 

Method

1) Prepare Burger Mix (add 200ml of water, mix well & leave a few hrs or overnight so you have a nice thick dough). 2) Into a big bowl, tip 2 tins of well-drained & rinsed brown or green lentils. 3) Add a large grated sweet potato (or equivalent pumpkin / broccoli / cauliflower / mix of whatever veggies you have). 4) Add oil 80ml of oil (olive oil, macadamia oil etc), & salt & pepper to your taste (I added approx 1/2 a teaspoon of each). 5) If it's too 'sticky' add a little coconut flour (or any GF flour) until the dough becomes easy to work with / not sticking to your fingers too much. 6) Mould into patties or balls & bake or fry/set aside in the fridge ready for a bbq. 7) Serve with a leafy salad, avocado, relish, sauerkraut...delish!
