Basil Butter Sweet Potato Patties image

This yummy recipe is from the Australian Women's Weekly's 'fresh food fast: delicious no-fuss healthy recipes'. When making patties, I often use well-greased egg rings. I have some that can be used in non-stick pans and place the mixture directly into these, then remove them when flipping the patties - with the help of two spatulas - to cook the reverse side.

Yield 8 Basil Butter Sweet Potato Patties, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 medium sweet potatoes, coarsely chopped
40 g butter, softened
1/3 cup fresh basil, finely chopped
1/4 cup pine nuts, roasted
3 garlic cloves, finely minced or 3 garlic, to taste
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, coarsely grated
1/3 cup stale whole wheat breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Boil, steam or microwave the sweet potato until it is tender; drain.
  • Mash the sweet potato with butter in a medium bowl; stir in the basil, nuts, garlic, cheese and breadcrumbs; when cool enough to handle, shape the sweet potato mixture into 8 patties.
