Sweet Potato & Chickpea Fritters
Breakfast? Sorted! I have to say this is the greatest way to start the day. These fritters are perfect served alongside some soft poached eggs. I like to make the mix the night before so its ready to cook the next morning. I picked up some handy silicone egg poaching pods which makes poaching super easy.
