Sweet Potato Cheese Bites

Ingredients

  • Sweet potato
  • Butter
  • Egg yolk (plus extra for brushing)
  • Sugar
  • Tapioca starch
  • Shredded cheese (a melty one like mozzarella)

Directions

  • Steam the sweet potato until soft, then mash it smooth.
  • Mix in butter, egg yolk, and sugar.
  • Gradually add tapioca starch a little at a time, kneading until it comes together into a soft dough.
  • Pinch off a portion, flatten it, and wrap it around a little shredded cheese.
  • Shape into balls and brush the tops with egg yolk.
  • Air fry at 170C (340F) for 20 minutes, until set and golden.
