2 large leaves of silver beet finely chopped
2 free range eggs beaten
1 tablespoon fresh chopped coriander
2 tablespoons buckwheat flour

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees (fan forced).

Stand for 15 minutes. Then drain the sweet potato by squeezing with a towel (a chux cloth is fine) - discard liquid.
In a fry pan on medium heat add coconut oil, silver beet, garlic, ginger powder and turmeric powder, cook, stirring frequently until the silver beet has wilted.
Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl.
Using wet hands create patties and place on lined tray.
Place in oven for about 25 minutes, carefully flip after 15 minutes with a spatula. Patties are cooked when they are golden brown. Enjoy.
