Kid-Friendly Salmon and Sweet Potato Patties

These family favourites developed by nutritionist, Susie Burrell, are packed full of the good stuff, and are perfect for after-school snacks, lunch boxes and dinners - even the fussiest kids will love them.

Ingredients

2 cups sweet potato chopped
1 cup frozen peas
1 can salmon drained large
2 cups breadcrumbs
4 eggs lightly beaten
2 spring onions thinly sliced
1 tbs olive oil

Directions

Boil, steam or microwave sweet potato and peas, separately, until tender. Drain and mash the sweet potato until smooth, then mix in peas.
Add salmon, 1/3 cup breadcrumbs, egg and spring onions to the sweet potato mixture and stir to combine.
Place remaining breadcrumbs on a plate.
Shape 1/3 cup salmon mixture into a 2cm-thick patty. Roll in breadcrumbs to coat. Repeat with remaining mixture.
Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat.
Cook patties, in batches, for 2-3 minutes each or until golden.
