My love affair with kale continues….as well as lentils and sweet potato. 

Rich in protein, with all the benefits of kale and there’s also a major superseed punch.

Makes about 12 patties 

Ingredients 

3 cups of cooked sweet potato (cubes) 

1 cup of cooked brown, red or green lentils (or a mix of all) 

1 cup of rolled oats (divided) 

2 Garlic cloves, minced 

1 teaspoon of smoked paprika 

1 teaspoon of salt 

1/2 teaspoon of pepper 

1 cup of chopped kale 

1/2 cup of pumpkin seeds 

1/4 cup of hemp seeds 

1/4 cup chopped coriander 

2 TBSP chopped chives 

Method 

Set oven to 200C 

Line a baking sheet with baking paper 

Add the potatoes, lentils, 1/2 cup of oats, garlic, paprika, salt and pepper to a food processor, pulse about 10 times, just to incorporate all the ingredients – don’t blend, you want to keep the mix chunky. 

Transfer mix to a bowl and add remaining ingredients, stir to mix and incorporate. 

Form patties and place on baking tray in rows. 

I find that you just need to keep your hands moist with some water will rolling and shaping the patties. Just helps, as the mix gets a little sticky. 

Bake the patties for about 30 minutes, flipping them at the half way mark.

Let them cool and serve them with a fresh salad, loads of guacamole or between two grilled field mushrooms as a vegetarian burger!
