Tell me a more wonderful combo than beetroots and goat cheese?! Ok, I actually love beets with feta cheese as well.. and I can come to think of a few other match made in heaven combos.. but that’s not the point.

A few tips:
- Make sure to clean the beetroots well before grating them, to make sure you don’t end up with any soil or stones in your patties.
- Squeeze out as much excess water as possible from the grated beetroots to avoid the patties from getting too wet.
- Season the patties according to taste with salt and pepper.
- You can add any other spices or add-ins that you like or prefer.
- If you don’t like or your stomach doesn’t like goat cheese you can make the goat cheese cream using feta cheese instead.
- Make sure to fry the patties on the one side until golden brown before turning them. That Willa void them from breaking.
- I love to use a silicon spatula to flip my patties, I find them easy to use and easier to use for flipping than steel spatulas.
