Prep time: 10 min
Cook time: 5 min
Total time: 15 min
Yield: 4
Ingredients: 2 c. baked sweet potato flesh; 1/2 c. whole wheat flour; 2 T. Garam Masala; 1 T. grated fresh ginger; 1/4 c. chopped fresh parsley leaves*; 2 T. canned coconut cream*; 2 T. grapeseed oil; I buy Savoy canned coconut cream from the asian food section at my grocery store. This is not coconut milk; this is very thick and has a high fat content. Plain yogurt can be substituted if you want a lower fat option or can't find coconut cream. DO NOT SUB coconut milk!; I prefer using cilantro in place of parsley but my kids don't like cilantro.
