• 2 tbsp Cilantro, chopped
• 1/2 tsp Cumin powder
• 1/4 tsp Chili powder
• 1/4 tsp Turmeric powder
• 1/2 tsp Salt
• 2 tbsp Ghee or coconut oil

1. 1In a large bowl, combine the 2 medium sweet potatoes, mashed, the 1/4 cup tapioca flour, the 1/4 cup finely chopped onion, the 1 tsp ginger, grated, the 1/2 number green chilies, finely chopped, the 2 tbsp cilantro, chopped, the 1/2 tsp cumin powder, the 1/4 tsp chili powder, the 1/4 tsp turmeric powder, and the 1/2 tsp salt.
2. 2Mix everything together with your hands or a spoon until all the ingredients are evenly distributed and form a cohesive mixture.
3. 3Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a small patty, about 1/2-inch thick.
4. 4Heat the 2 tbsp ghee or coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat, which is about 350°F (175°C).
5. 5Carefully place the patties into the hot skillet. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes on the first side, until a deep golden brown color appears and the edges look crispy.
6. 6Flip the patties and cook for another 5 to 7 minutes on the second side, until they are golden brown and crispy on both sides. You can gently press on a patty to feel if it's firm.
