3 inches sweet potatoes, peeled & cut up into wedges or  battons

Preparation

1 First make the meat mix. Take a foodprocessor & put the meat, the beaten egg, the chopped parsley, the breadcrumbs, the grated onion, the grinded fennel seeds & some Maldon sea salt & black pepper in it. Pulse or mix everything together until it resembles all mixed. Taste. Season extra according to taste. 2 With a spoon, make 4 burgers out of the mix. Flatten them with your hands. 3 Put them in clingfilm & place into the fridge. I leave them there for about 2 hours. 4 After 2 hours, take the meat out of the fridge. Take away the clingfilm. 5 Preheat the oven to 220 ° C. 6 Take a non stick baking dish, I used 2. Place the sweet potato wedges in it, in a single layer. 7 Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to each baking dish, evenly divided. 8 Add half of the 1/2 teaspoon of Cayenne pepper to each baking dish. Evenly scattered. 9 Add 1 teaspoon of sweet paprika to each baking dish, evenly divided. 10 Add some Maldon sea salt to each baking dish. 11 Take your hands & mix everything together. 12 Place into the oven & bake until sticky & cooked trough. Sometimes this will take 20 minutes, depending on the size of the wedges or battons. 13 In the mean time, take a large non stick pan & heat up on high. Add baking margarine. When melted & sizzling, add your 4 burgers & bake until cooked trough. Bake on high heat the first 5 minutes on both sides & turn the heat down for the last 5 minutes. 14 If you want, you can bake your onion rings now because these will take only 10 minutes to bake. Keep warm. 15 To serve: take your dinner roll & smear the bottom with mayonaise. Put lettuce on it. Place your burger on it. Put ketchup on that. Add a slice of the tomato.
