Sweet Potato Fritters

Dissolve the yeast in warm water, separately

Mix the sweet potato, butter, carrot, salt, and milk

Let it cool down

Add the yeast mixture and egg

Combine 2 cups of flour and beat well with a wooden spoon

Add the remaining flour until you get a soft dough

Place the dough on a floured surface and knead for 6-8 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic

Shape into small balls and place in a greased baking dish

Cover and let rise in a protected area for about 1 hour or until doubled

Let it rest for another 10 minutes

Divide the dough into 4 parts and cut each part into 6

Form small balls with each piece

Arrange the balls on a baking sheet, leaving about 2cm of space between them

With scissors, make 3 cuts almost to the center of each ball

And between each cut, make a smaller cut, creating a flower shape

Cover and let rise for another 30 minutes

Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown

Brush with melted butter as soon as removed from the oven

Yield: 24 sweet potato fritters.
