Vegetarians are treated to cheese-laden herby burgers in this festive recipe by Simon Rimmer

 

Veggie Christmas cheese burgers

Method

 
1. Mix all the ingredients together except for the oil in to a large bowl, get your hands in and really mix it up. Chill the mixture for about 2 hours.

2. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 200C/gas 6. Peel the sweet potatoes, cut into very thick chips and place in a large, non-stick roasting pan. Pour over the oil and soy sauce and toss together. Season with freshly ground black pepper.

3. Roast the sweet potatoes in the oven for 35-40 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crisp.

4. Divide the cheese mixture into 12 portions and mould into burgers shapes. Heat the oil in a frying pan and cook the burgers for about 3-5 minutes on both sides.

5. When ready, serve the burgers between onion foccacia and accompany with the sweet potato chips and rocket leaves.
