Fun and easy to make - and equally
fun and easy to eat. They do get a tad
messy but I trust you can handle this.
All that’s in these burgers and fries is a whack load of vegetables and spices.
Goes like this: throw stuff in the food processor, rub things with your hands,
toss something in the dehydrator and you’ll have a gourmet raw food meal in
no time! (Okay, I may have simplified that process a little.) But seriously - it’s
pretty much that easy. Look at the colors of this food.

It’s alive. I’m alive. Let’s boogy.
I was looking for jicama but went with what was at the store and they turned
out great! If you're new to raw food - go with jicama first.

The burgers are bursting with flavor
and when piled with fixings - best
option for dinner!

YAM BURGERS & DAIKON FRIES WITH KETCHUP
By Emily from This Rawsome Vegan Life | Serves 5 or so
BURGERS:

FRIES:

1 yam/sweet potato

1 jicama root or daikon radish (the size depends on how

²/³ cup green onions (or onion)

many you’re feeding)

1 red bell pepper

1 teaspoon veg oil (optional but recommended)

4 dates

salt, pepper, cumin, coriander, cinnamon, basil, turmeric,

5 tablespoons ground flax seeds
4 tablespoons nutritional yeast
4 large mushrooms
4 garlic cloves
salt, pepper, cumin, coriander,
cinnamon, basil, turmeric, paprika
(to taste)

paprika (to taste)

KETCHUP:
1-2 tomatoes
½ cup sun dried tomatoes
salt (to taste)
3 dates
water or lemon juice (as needed)

1    To make the burgers: prep the veggies as needed and cut them into chunks.
2    Then pulse all the ingredients in your food processor until everything becomes a thick, wet-ish
mixture, but don’t pulse too long. You want pieces of the food still visible and you don’t want it
to be too wet. Adjust according to taste.
3    Then form into patties
4    For raw: dehydrate for 3-4 hours, or use your oven at it’s lowest temperature. You could eat
them right away if you like, but they won’t hold their shape too well.
5    For non-raw: bake gently for 20min on 180C (G Team suggestion)
6    To make the fries: peel the daikon and slice into fries. Rub in the oil and spices.
7    For raw: Dehydrate for 3 hours or in your oven at it’s lowest temperature, (or you could eat
them right away if you like).
8    For non-raw: bake gently for 20min on 180C (G Team suggestion)

TO MAKE THE KETCHUP:
9    Blend all ingredients in your food processor or blender until smooth, adding liquid as needed.
10    Adjust according to taste.
