These Sweet Potato Fritters with Guacamole and Poached Egg are a perfect combination of flavors and textures. Crispy sweet potato fritters are topped with creamy guacamole and a perfectly poached egg, creating a satisfying and nutritious meal that's perfect for any time of day.

Ingredients:

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, grated
  • 1/2 red onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp cumin powder
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 ripe avocados
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 2-4 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp white vinegar
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Fresh cilantro leaves for garnish

Instructions:

Place the grated sweet potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out any excess moisture

In a mixing bowl, combine the grated sweet potatoes, chopped red onion, minced garlic, all-purpose flour, egg, cumin powder, paprika, salt, and pepper

Mix until well combined

In a separate bowl, mash the ripe avocados and mix in the lime juice

Season with salt and pepper to taste

This is your guacamole

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat

Scoop a spoonful of the sweet potato mixture and form it into a patty

Place it in the hot skillet and flatten it slightly with a spatula

Repeat with the remaining mixture, cooking the fritters in batches if necessary

Cook the sweet potato fritters for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy

Remove them from the skillet and drain on paper towels

In a large saucepan, fill it with water and bring it to a gentle simmer

Add white vinegar to the simmering water

Carefully crack an egg into a small bowl and gently slide it into the simmering water

Poach the egg for about 3-4 minutes for a runny yolk or longer for a firmer yolk

Remove with a slotted spoon and place it on a paper towel-lined plate

Repeat with the remaining eggs

To assemble, spread a generous spoonful of guacamole on each sweet potato fritter

Top with a poached egg and garnish with fresh cilantro leaves

Serve the Sweet Potato Fritters with Guacamole and Poached Egg immediately

Enjoy your delicious and nutritious meal!
