Ingredients

  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons plain flour
  • 550g sweet potato
  • 1 red onion
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 410g cannellini beans (canned)
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 sprigs sage
  • 410g diced tomatoes (canned)

Method

Whisk the egg and flour together in a bowl.

Grate sweet potato and squeeze out excess moisture. Stir the potato into the egg mixture, then add grated onion.

Heat two-thirds of the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Form the potato into four even-sized balls. When the oil starts to heat, add the balls in batches and press down with a spatula to form patties.

Cook for 4–5 minutes, until brown. Transfer to the oven and cook for 5–7 minutes.

Drain and rinse the cannellini beans.

Heat the remaining oil in a medium saucepan, add garlic, chopped sage, tomatoes and beans. Simmer for 10 minutes. Serve on top of rosti.
