1

Peel the sweet potatoes, cut into chunks and place in a pot filled with water. Bring to the boil on a medium-high heat. Turn down to a medium heat and simmer for 30 minutes until soft.

2

Preheat oven to 180C.

3

Place the chickpeas in a food processor, blitz until smooth and transfer into a large bowl.

4

Add the sweet potato into the bowl with the chickpeas and mash well. Add all other falafel ingredients apart from the sesame seeds and combine well.

5

Using your hands, form the mixture into small balls and roll each one in the sesame seeds so that each ball is completely covered.

6

Fry the balls in batches in olive oil in a fry pan on medium-high for 2-3 minutes on each side and set aside.

7

Place the balls on a baking tray and bake for a further 30 minutes or until firm. They should be slightly crispy on the outside and soft in the middle.

Guacamole

Place all of the ingredients into a mixing bowl and mash the avocado with a fork until well combined. Place in a serving dish.
