Preparation
  1. Peel and grate the sweet potatoes. Use a clean kitchen towel to squeeze out excess moisture.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the grated sweet potatoes, onion, garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Cooking
  1. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a little more olive oil if necessary.
  2. Form the sweet potato mixture into patties and place them in the skillet.
  3. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Serving

Notes

Grating the sweet potatoes thinly helps them cook quicker and get crispy. For a spicy kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper. You can customize with veggies or make them fluffier by adding cornstarch. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for 3-4 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
