Herbed yogurt is served with rostis and salmon. Sweet potato is a tasty and nutrient-rich alternative to potatoes, and it is delicious combined with apples.
It serves 2 and the preparation time wouldn't take more than 15 mins.
When you’re ready to cook, your table should have:
1 sweet potato (200g/7oz), unpeeled, cut in halfway length-ways 🍠📏
1 eating apple 🍏
1 egg beaten 🥚
2 tbsp almond flour or finely ground almonds (plus extra if needed) 🌰
1 tbsp coconut oil or Indian ghee 🥥🧈
2 large slices of smoked salmon 🐟
Sea salt and ground black pepper 🧂🌶️ Herbed Yogurt:
60g/2.15oz/1/4 cup coconut yogurt (or yogurt) 🥥🥄
1 tbsp chopped coriander/cilantro leaves 🌿
1 tbsp chopped mint leaves 🍃
1 tbsp lemon juice 🍋
Cooking Notes:
Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas 4. To make the herbed yogurt, put the yogurt in a bowl and stir in the herbs and lemon juice—season with salt and pepper.
To make the Rostis, microwave half the potato at full power for 2-3 minutes until soft.
Leave to cool, then peel off the skin. (Alternatively, bake in an oven preheated to 180°C/350°F/Gas 4 for 1 hour.
Mash the potato in a bowl. Coarsely grate the remaining potato and the apple onto paper towels and squeeze to remove the excessive moisture.
Tip into the bowl and add the egg and almond flour. Season and stir.
The mixture should hold its shape. Add more almond flour if needed.
Heat the oil in an ovenproof frying pan over medium heat. Divide the mixture in half and shape into 2 patties 1cm /0.5in thick.
Use a large spatula to lift the patties into the pan. Lower the heat and cook for 2-3 minutes until the base is golden.
Turn the Rostis over and cook for 2-3 minutes until golden.
Transfer the pan to the oven for 5 minutes to cook the rostis through.
Serve topped with salmon and a spoonful of herbed yogurt.
