Pork and apple rissoles
25 mins
2 medium sweet potatoes

You can swap:
Step 1
Pre-heat oven to 220oC. Line a baking tray with baking paper.
Step 2
Place whole sweet potatoes on the baking tray and roast until tender – approximately 30-40 minutes. Remove from the oven. When cool enough to touch, cut in half and scoop out the flesh.
Step 3
Place the sweet potato flesh, cumin, garlic, ground coriander, fresh coriander, lemon juice and chickpea flour into a large bowl. Season with a pinch of salt and mash until smooth with no large lumps. Place the mix in the freezer for 30 minutes.
Step 4
Shape the cooled mix into 8 rounds using two soup spoons and roll lightly in sesame seeds.
Step 5
Place onto the baking tray and bake in the oven for approximately 15 minutes or until golden.
Serving suggestion: Serve with flat bread, salad and minty yoghurt dip.
Food safety tip: If you are packing for lunch, falafels need to be kept cold so pack an ice brick.
