Ingredients

  • 300g mashed sweet potato
  • 100g grated sweet potato
  • 1 onion, diced
  • Salt and black pepper to season 
  • 75g plain flour gluten free 
  • 25g Butter

Method

  1. Mix the mashed sweet potato, grated potato, and diced onion in bowl and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Add the gluten free flour to form a dry potato dough; you might not need to use all the flour. 
  3. Divide the potato dough into four equal portions and form each into a round patty. 
  4. Heat the butter in a frying pan and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden and piping hot. 
  5. While the potato cakes are cooking, poach the eggs in a saucepan of simmering water for 2-3 minutes; this will give you a lovely runny egg yolk. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain carefully on kitchen paper.
  6. Once the potato cakes are ready, take them from the pan and keep warm.  Add the spinach to the pan to wilt it; this will only take a minute or two.
  7. Serve the spinach onto the plate. Top with the potato cake and then the poached egg, and a sprinkle of chilli flakes.
