Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a large bowl, combine the grated sweet potatoes, chopped onion, minced garlic, curry powder, cumin, chili flakes, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.

  3. Sprinkle the flour over the sweet potato mixture and mix again to ensure everything is coated with a thin layer of flour.

  4. Using your hands, shape the sweet potato mixture into small patties, pressing firmly to ensure they hold together.

  5. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the sweet potato patties in the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.

  6. Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy.

  7. Transfer the partially cooked patties onto the prepared baking sheet and bake in the oven for an additional 10-15 minutes to ensure they are fully cooked and heated through.

  8. Once the Sweet Potato Patties are crispy and golden brown, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.

  9. Garnish with fresh herbs like chopped cilantro or parsley for a burst of freshness and color.
