Savory Sweet Potato Pancakes

Day 125/365

Bug was in a creative mood last night and surprised me with an experimental dish using a couple of sweet potatoes that we procured for under $1.

Ingredients:
1 lb sweet potato, grated
1/2 - 2/3 c flour
2 eggs
pinch of cinnamon
pinch of allspice
pinch of nutmeg
pinch of salt
pinch of pepper
cooking spray

Combine ingredients. coat pan with cooking spray, then fry up the pancakes.

After Bug grated the sweet potatoes, he did not set the potatoes aside in salt to later drain the liquid, as may be customary in some circles. Instead, he adjusted by adding flour incrementally until he was satisfied with the consistency.

The sweet potato pancakes were savory, sweet, with not too much spice to overwhelm the cabbage and red pepper and spinach chicken sausage that were also a part of the meal.  There was enough spice the potatoes tasted like an indulgence.

I look forward to eating this again!
