Howdy folks hows it going welcome to my virgin
kitchen today i'm showing you how to make
some sweet potato vegan burgers, good times.
They look amazing right well they would be
to me if I took these glasses off trust me
they are they are super easy super delicious
I want to thank Claire Barzan on YouTube for
suggesting this recipe she said Barry can
you make some vegan burgers?
I said yes, can you make some vegan burgers
that don't fall apart?
i'll give it a go and I have, and they taste
good, really hope you give them a try if you
want to try them hit pause on the video now
write all of these ingredients down I just
put a picture of it on instagram @myvirginkitchen
that's my account and this guy just made me
LOL you know when you put LOL on social media
but you don't really mean it but I actually
just did laugh out loud levush put quite a
rude comment which for a sweet potato burger
was quite extravagent I thought so cheers
mate this guys is how you do it.
So we'll start off with sweet potato now i've
got to be honest with you i'm being a bit
lazy today you can put it in the oven if you
want but to save time I put mine in the microwave
so give your sweet potato a good peel then
cut into disc shapes whack it into a microwave
safe mixing bowl don't put it into a non microwave
safe mixing bowl bad things will happen just
ask my Dad - silly Dad.
Uh yeah microwave for 11 minutes I did it
for you wanna get it nice and mushy so it
might be one or two minutes more or less depending
on the power of your microwave take it out,
that bowl will be very hot let it cool down
completely.
Once it has cooled down a bit give it a little
mush with a fork tip in your garlic, paprika,
coriander, red onion, pepper & some breadcrumbs
then give it a darn good mix together again.
Now at this stage I had a bit of a Homer Simpson
DOH! moment I forgot to add my sweetcorn in
with the rest of the other ingredients so
I did that separately mix that through but
if your thinking ahead just mix it through
until you've got a nice sweet potato patty
mixture in a bowl ready to be moulded - that's
my moulding action.
Shape your cooled sweet potato mixture into
patties on greaseproof paper then whack it
in the fridge for 5 minutes and meanwhile
quickly toast up your buns in a pan with no
oil then put them to one side, I gave them
a nice little spread of tomato chutney but
you can put on whatever you like really.
Now go back to the pan you toasted your buns
in add a little olive oil just a little shallow
depth on there get it nice and warm before
pushing in your sweet potato patties flipping
them after 2 minutes until they are nice and
golden brown and rest them on kitchen towel.
So what we've effectively done guys is taken
that sweet potato which is a super food and
turned it into a super super food it should
be flying around like superman, it should
have a red cape on it and everything I can't
really make that happen but you know what
i'm saying.
In terms of the fillings for the burger go
to town on it and do what you want I got my
smeared toasted base with that tomato chutney
on it slammed down that caramelised sweet
potato patty rocket salad on top little bit
of avocado then the toasted smeared lid on
the top.
So so good, i've already eaten it but here's
a little clip of me eating it if you do give
