salt and pepper
fresh or dried herbs of your choice: rosemarythyme, basil, herbes de provence, etc.
olive oil
Instructions
Grate the sweet potato on a grater (not sure if food processing would work quite as well) and season with salt, pepper and herbs—a generous dash of each. Heat a small frying pan over medium heat. When a drop of water sizzles on the pan, add a teaspoon or two of oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the pan. Add the grated potato and use a spatula to press it evenly into the pan, about ½” thick. Let cook for about 3 minutes (depending on the size/thickness of your hash) without disturbing—it’s forming a crust at this point. Carefully slide your spatula under the patty—this should be easy to do if the bottom is fully cooked and carefully flip. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, then serve hot. Eat it like candy, man.
