Curried Sweet Potato Cakes

Big fan of Indian cusine here. I also really like dishes that can be either a main course or a side to something else. These little cakes are a fun way to eat sweet potatoes, which are mega good for you by the way!


Makes about 20 small cakes

Ingredients:
-4 regular-sized sweet potatoes, baked
-1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
-2.5 Tbsp. curry powder
-1 tsp. minced garlic
-1 tsp. cinnamon
-salt and pepper, to taste
-4 small ears of corn

Directions:

1) Bake the sweet potatoes in the oven or microwave and set aside until cool enough to handle. Cut into chunks, skins optional

2) Mash potatoes together with the applesauce, curry powder, garlic, cinnamon, and salt/pepper.

3) Cut the kernels off the ears of corn. Combine with the potato mixture. Let it sit in the fridge for about 30 minutes.

4) In batches, spoon mixture onto a large, greased frying pan or griddle (use either oil or cooking spray). Sear for a few minutes on each side. Serve immediately.
