Sweet Potato Patties Recipe - Ingredients and Directions to Make the Perfect Patties

This sweet potato patties recipe is delicious and simple. If you end up loving it as much as I do, you can also experiment with using different seasonings, or using potatoes instead of sweet potatoes.

I also use brown rice in this recipe because it makes a nice, light patty when compared to a bean burger and it is a great source of nutrients. This recipe makes 5 patties. Be sure to allow the rice to cool, as it gets really nice and sticky and helps the patties stay together. Sweet Potato Patties Recipe Ingredients 1 cup water sea salt 1/2 cup short grain brown rice 1/2 cup sweet potato, grated 1/2 onion, diced 1/2 cup whole grain flour 1 tsp olive oil Sweet Potato Patties Recipe Directions: Bring to a boil and add sea salt and brown rice. Bring back to boil and simmer, covered for 45 minutes. Allow the rice to cool, so that it will be sticky enough to form into a patty. Stir the rice, sweet potato, onion and salt together in a bowl. The salt will draw the moisture out of the potato & onion if allowed to sit for a few minutes. Stir in enough of the flour to make the batter sticky, adding a tablespoon or 2 of water if necessary. Form the into tight balls and squish into patties. Heat a pan on medium and add enough oil to coat the underside of each patty. Cook for 7-10 minutes, flip and cook another 5-7 minutes. The patties can be garnished with lettuce and salsa, on a bun as a burger, or even on its own. I sometimes serve them along with some steamed kale in a tamari and sesame seed dressing.
