Instructions

  1. Remove the bark from the roll, preferably from the day before or 2 days old, and work it into small crumbs. Put the crumbs on a board and let dry a little.
  2. Mix the yoghurt with salt, pressed garlic and chopped mint and chill.
  3. Take the sweet potatoes, if possible the same size, slim, prick all around with a fork. Wrap each in a sheet of kitchen paper and moisten well. Place the potatoes on a plate and cook in the microwave at 800 watts for about 10 minutes, turning 1-2 times.
  4. Meanwhile, dice tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper and onion. Mix with lemon juice, salt and let steep.
  5. Unwrap the sweet potatoes, cut in half lengthways and leave to cool. Scrape the pulp out of the skin with a spoon. Mash finely with a fork in a bowl or on a plate.
  6. Cut the chives into rolls, it should be 2 - 3 tablespoons, and finely grate the ginger. Add to the potato purée with the remaining ingredients and mix everything well.
  7. Divide the dough into about 6 portions with a spoon. Roll the portions into a ball, place on the breadcrumbs and shape into flat patties. Turn the patties in the breadcrumbs and let stand for approx. 30 - 60 minutes. This will make the patties a little firmer.
  8. Heat the oil in a non-stick pan and fry the patties in it for about 3 - 5 minutes on each side, until they are completely heated and lightly browned. Turn carefully, the patties are still soft when they come into the pan and do not become quite firm even when frying.
  9. Arrange on plates with lettuce, cashmere and yoghurt dip and serve hot.
