Sweet Potato Fritters

Print Recipe Pin Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup sweet potato finely grated
  • 1 cup onion finely chopped
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 cup short grain brown rice cooked
  • 1- 1 1/4 cup oat flour or other flour if you prefer
  • coconut oil for frying

Instructions
 

  • Cook rice according to directions (1 part rice, 2 parts water, covered on med-low for about 20 minutes or so)
  • Peel and shred the sweet potato and mix with the onion in a bowl. Add salt and let sit for at least 5 minutes so the salt draws out the moisture from the veggies.
  • Add the rice.
  • Stir in the flour slowly until the mixture becomes a good dough consistency.
  • Heat a pan to medium and add enough oil to coat the patties (usually about a tsp per batch). Form the mixture into golf ball size patties for appetizers or burger size patties for meal portions.
  • Cook for about 5 minutes, flip and cook another 5 minutes or until both sides are a light golden brown.
  • Set on a paper towel to absorb the excess oil before serving.
