By / Photography By | October 09, 2018

Ingredients

Fritters
  • 2 cups grated unpeeled sweet potato (from 1 large or 2 small potatoes)
  • 2 scallions, sliced
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
Yogurt Dip
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 3 ounces Asiago cheese
  • 2 cloves of garlic, peeled
  • 1 scallion
  • ½ lemon, juiced
  • 2 tablespoons cracked black pepper
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

To make fritters, mix sweet potato, scallion, eggs, flour and salt in a large bowl until well incorporated.

In a saucepan, heat canola oil; when a splash of water dances atop the oil, you know it’s ready.

 Using your hands, scoop out batter about the size of a golf ball and dollop into the pan, flattening slightly with a spatula so the fritter cooks evenly. Cook for 3–5 minutes on each side.

To make dip, blend all ingredients in a blender until smooth. Add water as needed to reach your desired dip consistency.

Serve fritters with dip.
