The paleo sweet potato fritters that'll save your weekend

Step 1

Preheat oven to 200°C. Place garlic on a sheet of foil and drizzle with 1 tbs oil. Enclose garlic in foil and roast for 1 hour or until very soft. Cool, then squeeze garlic flesh into a bowl, discarding peel. Set aside.

Step 2

Combine sweet potato, spices, almond meal and eggs in a bowl. Season. Heat remaining 1/3 cup (80ml) oil in a large non-stick frypan. In 2 batches, add 1/3 cup sweet potato mixture per fritter to frypan, flattening with a spatula into 10cm rounds. Cook for 2-3 minutes each side, turning carefully, until golden, then drain on paper towel. Keep warm. Repeat with remaining mixture (add more oil if necessary).

Step 3

Place garlic flesh, tahini, lemon and 1/4 cup (60ml) iced water in a food processor. Whiz until glossy and thick. Season.

Step 4

Place chorizo in a non-stick frypan. Cook over high heat, stirring, for 8-10 minutes until crisp.

Step 5

Top fritters with chorizo, almonds, amaranth and radish. Serve with roasted garlic tahini and lemon wedges.
