Ingredients

• 1 lb. frozen sweet potato fries
• Kosher salt
• 1 3/4 tsp ras el hanout (Moroccan seasoning) or pumpkin pie spice
• 1/2 cup mayo
• 2 tbsp. harissa paste
• 3 garlic cloves, grated
• 1 1/2 lbs. ground beef
• 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
• Black pepper
• 1 tbsp. vegetable oil
• 4 sesame buns, split and toasted
• Sliced tomatoes, baby arugula, for topping

Directions

1. Bake the sweet potato fries as directed; season with salt and 1/4 tsp ras el hanout. Reduce the oven temp to 250 and keep the fries warm in the oven. Meanwhile, mix the mayo, harissa and 1 grated garlic clove in a small bowl; refrigerate until ready to use.

2. Combine the ground beef, parsley, and remaining 2 garlic cloves and 1 1/2 tsp ras el hanout in a large bowl. Mix with your hands until just combined. Form into 4 patties; season on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the burgers and cook until browned, 3-5 minutes per side for medium rare.

3. Serve the burgers on the buns with a spoonful of the harissa mayo and some sliced tomatoes and arugula. Serve with the sweet potato fries and remaining harissa mayo.
