Tips
Shortcuts
- You can swap out black beans for kidney beans or butter beans and the sweet potato for grated carrot or beetroot – you just might need to adjust the amount of flour to get them to the right consistency.

- 1 small orange sweet potato (1 cup, grated)
- 1 egg
- 3 Tbsp flour or spelt flour
- ½ tsp Paprika
- ½ tsp ground cumin
- ½ tsp ground coriander
- Salt and pepper
- Olive oil
Method
- In a medium bowl add the black beans, mashing roughly with the back of a fork.
