Preparation

How to make burgers with whole wheat buns and beetroot

For the patties

Preheat the oven to 200°C (180° fan) | gas 6.
Scrunch together the beef mince with the spices and plenty of salt and pepper to taste.
Divide into four portions and shape into patties, pressing your thumb into their centres to leave an imprint.
Arrange on a baking tray, spaced apart.
Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden-brown, turning halfway.

For the dressing

In the meantime, combine all the ingredients for the dressing in a food processor. Purée until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste as needed.

To assemble

Peel the beetroot.
Carefully slice on a mandoline into paper-thin slices.
Top the bottom halves of the rolls with some mesclun, micro salad, and avocado slices.
Sit the patties on top and top with more mesclun and micro salad.
Drizzle over some of the dressing with a tablespoon.
Sit the slices of beetroot on top before placing the tops of the rolls in place on top.
Serve the burger immediately for best results.
