Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (400°F).

  2. Arrange the sweet potato slices on a baking sheet, season them with spices, and bake for 30 minutes until tender and lightly caramelized.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The sweet potato is tender inside with lightly caramelized edges. Arrange slices in a single layer for more even browning.

  3. While the sweet potatoes bake, heat a skillet over medium heat and fry the raw meat patties in a pan until cooked through, about 4–5 minutes per side.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The patties are browned outside and cooked through. Turn them once the first side releases from the skillet.

  4. Once the patties are done, assemble each burger by placing a patty on a sweet potato slice, topping with avocado, red onion, and a slice of cheddar cheese.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The toppings sit neatly on the sweet potato base. Assemble while the patties are hot so the cheddar warms.

  5. Serve immediately while the cheese is still warm and the sweet potato is crisp.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The cheddar is warm and the sweet potato still has a crisp edge. Serve promptly to preserve the contrast in texture.
