Beetroot and Farro Burger

I love making veggie burgers and have a stock of homemade ones in the freezer. These farro and beetroot burgers are a little more crumbly than sometimes but the flavour is fab. I served it on a homemade bun with homemade pickles and cheese.





















Beetroot and Farro Burgers (from What's Cooking Good Looking)
(Makes 4-5 Burgers)

65g uncooked farro
a pinch of salt
2 beetroot, roughly chopped
2 carrots, roughly chopped
3 spring onions, chopped
1 large clove garlic, minced
salt and pepper
35g rolled oats
60g sunflower seeds
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 tbsp oil
Cook the farro according to packet instructions.

Put the cooked farro, beetroot, carrots, spring onion, garlic, salt and pepper into a food processor. Pulse several times until everything is pureed. Add the oats, and pulse until combined. Add the sunflower seeds. Pulse a few times. 

Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl, and add in the beaten eggs, stirring until it is combined. 

Place the mixture in the fridge for 30 mins.

Once the mixture has been chilled, remove it from the fridge and form the patties. Divide the mixture into 4-5 patties, and place them onto a plate or baking sheet. 

Heat the oven to 200C and bake for 20-25 mins. Or fry them in a little oil until cooked. Serve.
