Baked Sweet Potato Kibbeh
This vegan Sweet Potato Kibbeh follows a classic method in preparing other kibbeh kinds, it is slightly wetter in consistency if compared to the ones made with regular potatoes, but the addition of flour will absorb the excess moisture.
It bakes up wonderfully, and the turned out a beautiful golden color!
addition of Paprika complement the sweetness in flavor, little cumin and black pepper as well will finish it up :) Amazing recipe that I was very glad trying it after searching too much over the net. As this recipe post was adapted from landandFlovors blog.
Sweet potato kibbeh is a keeper for all vegetarians!
