Heaven is a place on earth. There is something about these fritters and a perfectly poached egg of glistening gold in the mornings that makes your taste buds sing.

Makes
6 small fritters (probably enough for 2 starving people or 3 if you serve with eggs and bacon.
Ingredients
- 1 cup mashed sweet potato *I used orange kumara
- 3 rashers bacon
- 1 cup spinach (wilted)
- 1/4 Leek
- 1/4 Onion
- 2 cloves of slow roasted garlic.
- Herb and garlic salt.
- 1 cup gluten free self raising flour
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- Coconut oil.
- 1 pinch Cayenne pepper
- 1 pinch mustard powder.
- 1 pinch curry powder
- Salt and pepper to taste.
Instructions
- Place a small amount of coconut oil in a pan and add the leek, onion and bacon
- Sauté until cooked. Add the cayenne pepper, curry powder and mustard powder and stir through for 30 seconds then remove from heat.
- In a bowl place the flour and make a well in the middle, add the two eggs and 1/2 the milk and whisk. Add more milk as needed until you get a thick batter.
- Stir in the sweet potato, onions, leek, garlic, spinach and bacon and season with salt and pepper
- Mix together into a thick batter (add more almond milk if needed). Should be thicker then a pancake but still slightly sloppy.
- Heat a fry pan to a medium heat. Dollop the mixture on the pan and cook until it goes golden on one side, flip and cook on the other side .
- Press the top with your finger, if it springs back (rather then squishes when you poke it) then its cooked.
- Place in the oven on a low heat to warm and make the remaining fritters.
- Serving recommendations
- Serve with a poached egg on top and a size of bacon and BBQ sauce. Would also be fab with a side salad if you want it to go further. DELICIOUS.
Notes
- I have totally reclaimed my cooking mojo this weekend. I have been experimenting with Stuffed Peppers, Sweet Potato Fritters, Home made chocolate ice blocks (gluten and dairy free) and everything has turned out AMAZING... Oh I have a lasagne with potatoes as the pasta layer (which I will be whipping up tonight!
