Ingredients

4 or 5 large Potatoes or 10 small potatoes, washed and then coarsely grated
18 Kale leaves, thinly sliced
Salt and Pepper to taste
3 Celery sticks, thinly sliced
1 Tbs Thyme (fresh or dried)
3 cloves Garlic, finely chopped
120g grated strong Cheddar
3 Eggs
6 Tbs plain Flour

Instructions

Place grated potato, celery, kale, thyme, garlic and cheese in a large bowl and mix well. Stir in half the flour and mix well. Stir in the 3 eggs and again mix well. Stir in the remaining flour and salt and pepper. Heat frying pan with olive oil to a high heat. Shape mixture into burgers. You should make between 6 and 8 burgers, depending on how large you want them. Place burgers in frying pan and reduce heat to medium. Turn every 4 minutes until golden brown on both sides. Check burgers are cooked all the way through by pressing down hard on the back of them with a fish slice. No runny egg mixture should ooze out; if it does then cook burgers more.
