  • Make the burgers: preheat oven to 425°; scrub the sweet potato, pat dry, and poke 5-6 times with a fork.
  • Bake, about 1 hour, until tender; let cool for 15 minutes, until it can be handled easily.
  • Remove the skin and gently crumble the flesh into a large bowl.
  • While the potato is baking, heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

  • Drain juices from pan and reserve; remove bay leaf.
