Cooking Steps
Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Cut the kumara (unpeeled) into 1cm fries. Place the kumara, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper onto the oven tray lined with baking paper. Toss to coat, then bake for 25-30 minutes, or until tender. TIP: Cut the kumara to the correct size so it cooks in the allocated time.
While the fries are baking, grate the courgette and squeeze out the excess moisture. Grate the carrot (unpeeled). Grate the Parmesan cheese (see ingredients list). Finely chop the garlic (or use a garlic press). Thinly slice the spring onion. Finely chop the chives. Thinly slice the tomato.
In a medium bowl, whisk the egg. Add the courgette, carrot, garlic, spring onion, chives, milk, grated Parmesan cheese, a pinch of chilli flakes (if using), plain flour, the salt and a pinch of pepper. Mix well to combine. TIP: Lift out some of the mixture with a spoon, if it's too wet and doesn't hold its shape, add a little more flour!
Coat the base of a large frying pan with olive oil and heat over a medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, place a spoonfuls of the mixture into the pan and flatten into patties using a spatula. You should get 2 fritters per person. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden and cooked through, then transfer to a plate lined with paper towel. TIP: If your pan is getting crowded, cook in batches for the best results. Don’t flip early to ensure the fritters can set and add extra oil as needed
While the patties are cooking, place the burger buns on a wire rack in the oven for 3 minutes, or until heated through.
Slice the burger buns in half and spread with smokey aioli. Top with the fritters, a handful of mixed salad leaves and sliced tomato. Serve with the kumara fries.
