The miso rounds off the flavour of these savoury cakes, adding a floral fruitiness to the whole experience.  No need to add any spices or salt as the miso provides all the taste that you need.

Take:

2 cups of sweet potato, grated

To the sweet potato add:

1 tbsp of miso

and mix well.

Heat up on medium to high flame in a skillet:

vegetable oil, 1cm in depth

and shape seasoned sweet potato into 10cm (4 inch) round patties.  Place the patties in the skillet when the oil is hot.  Wait 2 minutes and then flip the patties over.  Cook partially covered on low heat for 8   minutes.

Can be eaten as a snack or as a carbohydrate portion of a main meal.
