Sweet Potatoe Red Lentil Bites

description:

Croquette/bites had to be constantly turned in order to harden and took a long time. Consider forming into small balls and flattening into patties

ingredients:

1 large sweet potatoe
1 cup red lentils
Handful of cheddar cheese
2 carrots grated
1 egg
1 cup breadcrumbs/panko
Optional: paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, thyme, italian seasoning

instructions:

1) Steam chunks of sweet potato until soft (less than 10 minutes).
2) Add lentils to pot with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil and simmer until softened (water will absorb and lentils will lose bright red color)
3) Combine cooled sweet potato and cooled lentils with remaining ingredients.
4) Form into mini patties or bites.
5) 400° until golden, about 20 min. May need to flip once to brown all sides
