Preparation

Step 1

Place the sweet potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with lightly salted water. Bring to a boil then cover and reduce the heat. Simmer for 15 minutes, or until tender. Drain the potatoes and transfer to a large bowl.

Add all of the remaining ingredients, except the vegetable oil and sour cream.

Heat the oil in a large saute pan and make the pancakes with large spoonfuls of batter. Flip once, cooking for 3-4 minutes on each side. Serve with a dollop of sour cream.
