This is a lovely one from the Happy Pear boys! This makes a lovely lunch in a pitta or serve with oven baked wedges for a healthy alternative to chicken nuggets and chips.
Ingredients:
2 large sweet potatoes
1 400g tin of chick peas
3 cloves of garlic
juice of half a lemon
2 tbsp of tamari
coriander paprika salt and cayenne (tsp of each)
4 spring onions
1 tbs cumin seed
1 red onion
1 bunch of coriander
1 bunch of flat parsley
Sesame dressing:
4 tbs tahini
juice of half a lime
8 tbs water
1 tbs honey (or maple syrup if for a baby under 12 months)
handful of mint leaves finely chopped
pinch of salt (optional)
Chop and boil sweet potato – no need to peel, just trim any dodgy bits
Tin of chick peas drained and rinsed bung in a bowl with finely chopped garlic, lemon juice, tamari, spices (hold the cayenne pepper and salt if you are feeding babies!)
Add cooked sweet potato and mash everything together
Add spring onions, red onion (finely chopped or minced in a blender for little people to avoid picking out!), chopped corriander and parsley
Roll into patties and brown in a pan (you don’t have to fry in oil unless you want to!)
In a separate bowl add Tahini, Lime, water (8 tablespoons), honey (again hold if feeding a baby under 1 year – you could use maple syrup instead). Mix together and add some finely chopped mint.
Serve in a wholemeal pitta with a drizzle of the dressing and whatever you like!
