Sweet potato fritters with garlic and yogurt dip

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

1. Make the batter

   10 min

   Peel and coarsely grate the sweet potatoes, then squeeze out a little water with your hands. Mix with the eggs, flour, crushed garlic, salt, and paprika.

2. Pan-fry

   25 min

   Heat the oil in a skillet. Spoon the mixture into the hot oil to form fritters about 1 cm thick, pressing them down lightly. Cook over medium heat for 3–4 minutes per side, until golden and tender inside.

3. Make the dip

   Mix the yogurt with the chives and salt.

4. Serve

   Drain the fritters on a paper towel and serve warm with the dip.

Tip: Cook the sweet potato fritters over medium heat: sweet potatoes contain more sugar than regular potatoes, so high heat would blacken the outside before the inside cooks through.
