Ingredients
- 3 pieces Sweet potatoes (medium-sized)
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (finely chopped)
- 1 piece Green chili (finely chopped)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Coconut oil
Directions
Step 1
Peel and chop the sweet potatoes into chunks. Place them in a pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Cook for 15 minutes or until soft. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, mash the boiled sweet potatoes until smooth.
Step 3
Add coconut flour, ground cumin, ground coriander, garam masala, chopped cilantro, chopped green chili, salt, and black pepper to the mashed sweet potatoes. Mix well until all ingredients are combined and the mixture is thick enough to shape.
Step 4
Divide the mixture equally and shape into small patties about 1/2 inch thick.
Step 5
Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the patties in the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
Step 6
Cook the patties for about 4-6 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 7
Transfer the cooked patties to a plate lined with a paper towel to absorb any excess oil.
Step 8
Serve the Paleo Aloo Tiki warm, garnished with additional cilantro if desired.
