Ingredients
- 3 large sweet potatoes, cooked
- 6 ounce browned butter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour, sifted
- 3 eggs
- 3 egg yolks
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg
- salt and pepper, to taste
- oil, for frying
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. In a food processor, mix the sweet potato and the browned butter and cover with plastic wrap to cool in the refrigerator.
- In a large mixer add the flour, eggs, egg yolks, brown sugar, and nutmeg to the chilled sweet potato. Mix for about 1 minute on medium-low speed.
- Spray a shallow 9-by-13-inch pan with nonstick pan spray. Spread the pan evenly with the sweet potato mixture and smooth the top of the mixture with an offset spatula.
- Cover the pan with foil and cook in a water bath for 45 minutes. Allow to cool completely, then cut into cubes or rounds.
- Heat a large skillet on medium-high heat and then add the oil for frying. Shallow fry the patties for 4 minutes. Serve warm.
