SWEET POTATO FRITTERS

Steps:

• In a shallow pan, heat oil to 350 degrees F.

Mash well. Add egg, bread crumbs, flour, salt, and pepper and mix well. Add the chives and corn and mix gently. Using 2 spoons to shape, scoop mounds into hot oil, cooking on both sides, in batches, until golden brown. With a slotted spoon or spider, remove fritters from oil and place on paper towel to dry. Mix sour cream, reserved chives, salt and pepper, to taste, and place a small dollop on each fritter when ready to serve.

SWEET POTATO-PINTO BEAN BREAKFAST TACO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Combine garlic, 1/2 teaspoon olive oil, and a pinch each salt and pepper in a small piece of aluminum foil. Fold it up to loosely cover and set it on the corner of the baking sheet.
• Toss sweet potato together with 2 tablespoons oil on the baking sheet. Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon sea salt, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, chili powder, onion powder, chile powder with lime, and paprika on top. Toss thoroughly and spread out.
• Roast in the preheated oven until sweet potatoes are tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place roasted sweet potatoes in a bowl. Unwrap the foil packet and toss roasted garlic mixture into the bowl of sweet potatoes.

• Heat tortillas in the preheated oven until warm, about 5 minutes.
• Place each tortilla on a plate. Layer on a small handful of spinach, a spoonful of mashed pinto beans, a small amount of sweet potato cubes, and a few slices of avocado. Place a fried egg on top. Sprinkle with radishes, green onions, and cilantro.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Prick sweet potato in several places with a fork. Microwave on High until just cooked through, 7 to 10 minutes. (Alternatively, place in a baking dish and bake at 425ºF until tender all the way to the center, about 1 hour.) Set aside to cool.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 4 to 6 minutes. Set aside 1/2 cup of the mixture. Add beans, 1/2 teaspoon paprika and 1/4 teaspoon salt to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, about 2 minutes. Cover and set aside.
• Whisk cornmeal, flour, baking powder, the remaining 3/4 teaspoon paprika and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Peel the sweet potato and mash in a large bowl with a fork. Stir in the reserved onion-pepper mixture, egg and water. Add the cornmeal mixture and stir until just combined.
• Form the sweet potato mixture into eight 3-inch oval fritters, using a generous 1/4 cup for each. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook 4 fritters until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining fritters and oil.
• Bake the fritters until puffed and firm to the touch, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve the fritters with the reserved bean mixture and lime wedges, if desired.
