Süßkartoffel-Tots

Zutaten

• 1 3/4 cup Mashed Sweet Potatoes (about 3 medium size sweet potatoes (420 g mashed sweet potatoes))
• 1 Egg Yolk (or 1 tablespoon flaxseed in 2 tbsp water)
• 1/2 cup Grated Cheese (I used vegan cheddar cheese)
• 1 Onion (finely grated)
• 3 Garlic Cloves (crushed)
• 1 cup Low-Carb Breadcrumb (or breadcrumb of your choice)
• 1/4 cup Fresh Parsley (or cilantro)
• 3/4 teaspoon Salt ((optional))

Zubereitung

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. 2

   On a baking tray, place the sweet potatoes. Use a fork to pick holes all over the sweet potatoes.

3. 3

   Bake for 30 minutes or until a skewer easily goes through the sweet potatoes.

4. 4

   Remove from the oven and cool down for 10 minutes before handling them.

5. 5

   Carefully slice the sweet potatoes half lengthwise and use a spoon to remove the flesh. Discard the skin.

6. 6

   Place the sweet potato flesh in a large mixing bowl. Cool it down until it reaches room temperature before you combine it with the other ingredients.

7. 7

   Add egg yolk, grated cheddar, grated onion, crushed garlic, breadcrumb, fresh herbs, and salt.

8. 8

   Combine with a spoon until it forms a mash that you can easily handle with your hands to shape small tots.

9. 9

   Prepare a baking tray covered with parchment paper. Set aside.

10. 10

    Use your hands to shape the sweet potato tots and place them on the tray leaving half a thumb of space between each tot.

11. 11

    Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 20 - 30 minutes or until the outside is crispy and slightly golden brown. The center will stay soft and moist.

12. 12

    Serve with some extra dipping sauce like ketchup or guacamole for a healthier choice.
