Method
- Peel and finely grate the sweet potato. Squeeze out as much liquid as you can with your hands.
- Rinse the chickpeas and blitz them coarsely with the onion and garlic in a food processor, or mash them with a fork.
- Mix the sweet potato and chickpea mash with the egg, oats, flour, cumin, chilli flakes and salt into a firm mixture.
- Leave the mixture to rest for 5 minutes so the oats can swell.
- Stir the yoghurt together with the crumbled feta and a little black pepper.
- Shred the lettuce, slice the cucumber, halve the tomatoes and thinly slice the red onion. Put it all in a bowl.
- Shape the mixture into 12 patties. Heat the oil in a large frying pan and fry the patties in two batches over a medium heat for 3–4 minutes a side, until golden brown and hot through.
- Serve the patties with the yoghurt sauce and the salad.
