Orange Sweet Potato Burgers (V)

Yesterday was the match between the Netherlands and Mexico during the WK 2014. So I decided to make sweet potato burgers. Orange and so perfect in theme! And I think it worked as the Netherlands won! Yeah!

Duration: 20 minutes

The ingredients for 1 serving:

• Sweet potato of about 150 g
• 15 g spelt flour
• 1/2 egg
• 1/4 ts cuminseed
• 2 garlic cloves
• 1 spelt or whole wheat bun
• 1 tbs homemade garlic sauce
• Handful arugula
• Couple of onion rings
• 200 g green beans
• Olive oil

What you do:

1. Cutthe ends of the beans and cook for 6 to 8 minutes in boiling water. 
2. Peel the sweet potato and grate it coarsely. Squeeze the moisture out of the sweet potato grater and put it together with the flour, 1 clove garlic and cumin in a bowl. In another bowl whisk the egg. Put half of the egg in the bowl and mix well with your hands. Form 2 röstiburgers of the potato mixture. 
3. Heat a splash of olive oil in a nonstick frying pan over high heat. When the oil is hot put the burgers in and immediately turn the heat to low. Press the burgers and fry 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown. 
4. Drain the beans and cook for a few minutes in a frying pan with some olive oil and a crushed garlic clove. 
5. Meanwhile, make the garlic sauce and cut the onion into rings. When the burgers are almost ready you can put the onion in the same pan and fry gently. 
6. Cover the bottom half of the bun with arugula and then place the second röstiburgers on top. Add the garlic and onion rings on it and cover with the top of the rolls.

Enjoy!
