Instrukcje
- 1.Rinse the lentils, then place them in a small saucepan with 500ml of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until tender. Drain well.
- 2.While the lentils cook, peel the sweet potato and cut it into small cubes. Boil or steam for 15-20 minutes until very soft. Drain and mash with a fork.
- 3.Finely chop the onion and garlic. If you have a food processor, you can briefly pulse the oats to create a coarse flour.
- 4.In a large bowl, combine the cooked lentils, mashed sweet potato, chopped onion, garlic, oats (or oat flour), cumin, coriander, and turmeric. Season generously with salt and pepper.
- 5.Mix everything together until well combined. The mixture should be firm enough to shape. If it's too wet, add a few more oats.
- 6.Divide the mixture into 4-6 equal portions and shape them into patties about 2cm thick.
- 7.Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Carefully place the patties in the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, until golden brown and crisp.
- 8.Serve the cakes hot, with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice and a sprinkle of chopped parsley if desired.
