Equipment

  • Air fryer
  • Grater

Ingredients

Sweet Potato Tots

  • 3 Small sweet potatoes Or 2 medium sweet potatoes
  • 2.5 tbsp Chickpea flour You can sub for all purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Cumin
  • 1/4 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1/8 tsp Black pepper
  • 1/2 tbsp Olive oil

Tangy Mustard Sauce

  • 1 tbsp Mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp Whole grain mustard
  • 1/4 tsp Lemon juice

Instructions

Sweet Potato Tots

  • Fill a medium pot with water and put it on the stovetop to boil. While waiting for the water to boil, use a potato peeler to peel the skin off of the potatoes.
  • Once the water is at a boil, place the sweet potatoes into the pot for 12 minutes.
  • When the sweet potatoes are done boiling, sit them out to cool for about 10 minutes.
  • Once the sweet potatoes are cooled off, use an extra coarse hand grater or box grater to grate them. I'd recommend putting a paper towel over a large plate because it will help to soak up extra moisture after all of the sweet potatoes are grated.
  • Once you're finished grating, spread out the shredded sweet potatoes and then place another paper towel on top. Press down, and then let it sit for about 5 minutes to soak up the extra moisture.
  • Meanwhile, combine the chickpea flour, salt, cumin, garlic powder, and black pepper into a large bowl. Then add in the grated sweet potatoes and use your hands to mix until fully combined.
  • Once the sweet potatoes are combined with the flour and spices, add in the olive oil and mix until combined.
  • Next, preheat your air fryer to 375 F.
  • Form the mixture into tots- mine made 25!
  • Put half the batch into the air fryer and cook for 8 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through. When they are finished cooking, remove and cook the second batch.

Tangy Mustard Sauce

  • Combine the mayonnaise, dijon mustard, whole grain mustard into a small bowl and stir until thoroughly combined.
