Sweet Potato & Fish Patties with Smashed Avocado

07/11/2013 By Caralee 10 Comments

Sweet Potato & Fish Cakes with Smashed Avocado
For a quick easy dinner that will please everyone, try these beautiful Sweet Potato & Tuna Patties. They could also be served as a nice side if you made them a bit smaller.

INGREDIENTS

2 large sweet potato’s (peeled)
1 onion
2 tablespoon olive or coconut oil
2 tablespoons of curry paste (from the Asian section of your supermarket)
1 large can tuna/salmon/smoked fish
1 egg
1/4 cup coconut flour
Salt & pepper to taste
1 avocado
1/2 lime

Roughly chop the sweet potato and place in a pot of boiling water, cook on medium heat until tender and then drain. Finely chop the onion and place in a hot pan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté on a medium heat until the onion turns transparent. In the pan with the onions, add two tablespoons of curry paste and sauté together until the mix is fragrant. Turn the pan off and set aside.

In the pot, mash the drained sweet potato, add the can of fish, onion mix, egg, coconut flour & salt to taste. Heat a clean pan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Form patties using a large tablespoon and cook 4 patties at once. Turn the patties when brown on each side.

To make the avocado mash, peal avocado and mash with a folk. Squeeze 1/2 a lime onto the avocado and season with salt and pepper.

Serve the cooked patties with the avocado mash on top and ENJOY!

    Oooo! This looks super easy and tasty! Great idea for a weekend lunch when I don’t have much on hand – definitely have a can of salmon and sweet potatoes 🙂

    Monday: Left over chicken with mushrooms in rolled Danish pancake ( like a crepe)
    Tuesday: Hawaiin Casserole in Slow cooker
    Wednesday: Home made Pizzas
    Thursday: Tuna and rice Oven bake and Salad/Veges
    Friday: Pasta with bacon mushroom sauce or pesto (depending on my mood!)
    Saturday: Caralee’s delicious Sweet Potato and Tuna patties with stir fried zucchini, broccoli and mushroom
    Nibbles and snacks:
    Fresh strawberries, raspberries and mandarins
    Lemon tarts
    Let us see how well I can stick to the plan.
    Something to ponder about.

        I think it really helped take the stress of deciding what to cook each day away. I didn’t have to think about it or if I did, it might be to pick up an ingredient for that night’s meal. And the patties worked out really well. Thanks for following up Caralee. Have a great Easter

    […] Lastly, Ill share with you last night’s dinner which I was honestly a little skeptical about this one but it turned out to be excellent! We made sweet potato fish cakes. We used can salmon and the combination of the sweet from the potato and the savory from the salmon with a little kick from the curry paste made this recipe amazing! One note is that it made a ton! We have a lot of leftover sweet potato cakes so makes sure you have an extra avocado on hand for leftovers! We served it alongside oven roasted acorn squash wedges which were super simple and equally incredible! That recipe can be found here. The original recipe for the fish cakes can be found here. […]
