Grass Fed Beef and Beetroot Burgers

Cook from chilled. Preheat a barbecue grill or frying pan to medium heat and lightly oil the cooking surface. Cook the 90g burger patty for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, turning once, until browned on the outside and cooked through. As the beetroot may retain a red colour during cooking, check the centre with a thermometer and cook until the internal temperature reaches 75°C.

You can substitute the beef and beet burger patties into any burger recipe you like. These patties will do just fine with your favourite toppings and condiments. Cooked onion, fried eggs, avocado, Worcester sauce, jalapeños, tomato sauce and mustard: everything goes!

Try building your burger with a couple of crisp lettuce leaves instead of bread for a low-carb variation.

WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO STORE BEETROOT AND BEEF MINCE BURGERS?

You can freeze beet and beef burger patties, either raw or cooked. We recommend individually wrapping each pattie in baking paper or plastic wrap to prevent them from sticking together.

If you are freezing your patties raw so you can cook them later, do remember to bring them up to room temperature before you cook them — this will ensure they cook evenly.
