Step-by-step
- Peel your sweet potato then chop into smaller rounds (about 5 pieces should work).
- Using your inspiralizer, spiralize the sweet potato and add the noodles to a large bowl.
- Then using kitchen shears, cut the noodles so they’re easier to handle.
- To the bowl, add the flour, scallions, shallot, spices and eggs.
- Stir the mixture together with a spatula or wooden spoon until combined.
- Add 2–3 tablespoons of coconut oil into a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Once the oil is hot, form small patties out of the sweet potato mixture in your hands.
- Cook the fritters until golden brown, about 2–3 minutes, then flip and cook an additional 2 minutes.
- Transfer the fritters to a cooling rack.
- Repeat this process with the remaining mixture.
- Serve slightly warm as is (or topped with some salsa, chopped cilantro (and avo) – yes!).
