Ingredients for purple sweet potato cakes:

Toast 150g
Purple sweet potato 450g
Milk 250g
Sugar 50g
Cheese 100g
Egg 200g
White sesame seed 50g

Step:

1.Prepare a slice of toast and take out a cup. Place the cup upside down on the toast and press down firmly with force. This will create a beautiful round bread slice. This round bread slice will serve as the outer shell for our purple sweet potato pancake, giving it a unique shape and texture.
2.Wash the purple sweet potatoes and cut them into small pieces using a knife. These pieces will be placed in a microwave-safe container. Then, add a small amount of water, making sure that the water level in the container does not exceed the height of the purple sweet potato pieces. Finally, cover the container and place it in the microwave on high heat for 5 to 10 minutes, until the purple sweet potatoes are soft enough to easily pierce with a fork.

3.After steaming the purple sweet potatoes, transfer them to a large bowl. Then, add a moderate amount of milk and a little bit of sugar into the bowl. Mash the purple sweet potatoes using a fork, ensuring that all the pieces are well mixed with the milk and sugar. Next, take a small portion of the purple sweet potato mash, knead it in your hands, and wrap it around a suitable amount of cheese. Press it flat to form a pancake shape, just like making a regular cheese pancake.

4.Take out the prepared purple sweet potato cheese pancake and place it on a slice of toast. Then, place another slice of toast on top of the purple sweet potato cheese pancake, ensuring that the pancake is completely enclosed by the two slices of toast. Gently press it together with your hands to seal it. This will ensure that the purple sweet potato cheese pancake maintains its shape and does not fall apart.
5.Take a bowl and crack the egg into it. Beat the egg until well mixed. Dip the purple sweet potato pancakes into the beaten egg, ensuring that each piece is fully coated with the egg mixture. In another bowl, prepare white sesame seeds and roll the edges of the purple sweet potato pancakes in the sesame seeds, making sure each pancake is evenly coated. This will add extra aroma and texture to our purple sweet potato pancakes.

4.Preheat the air fryer to 170 degrees Celsius. Place the coated purple sweet potato cakes into the air fryer and set the timer to fry for 15 minutes. During the frying process, you can monitor the color change of the cakes to ensure they are not over-fried.

5.Once the purple sweet potato cakes are done frying, remove them from the air fryer and arrange them on a delicate plate. Now, these delicious cheese-filled purple sweet potato cakes are ready to be enjoyed!The outer layer is golden and crispy, while the inside is tender and full. Every bite is filled with the rich aroma of cheese and the sweet flavor of purple sweet potato.

Tips:

1.Before making the delicious cheese purple sweet potato pancakes, we need to preheat the air fryer to ensure that the food is heated evenly. This will allow the purple sweet potato pancakes to achieve optimal cooking results during frying while maintaining their moisture and texture.
2.During the frying process, it is important to closely observe the color change. Excessive temperature or prolonged frying time can cause the purple sweet potato cakes to burn, so we need to monitor the progress closely to avoid overcooking and burning.

The purple sweet potato cakes have a deep purple appearance, with vibrant and enticing colors. They are usually round or slightly flattened in shape, with a smooth surface and a subtle caramelized aroma. The texture of the cakes is also unique. The outer crust is crispy and delightful, while the inner filling made of purple sweet potato is smooth and sweet, providing a rich mouthfeel. With each bite, you first experience the crispness of the outer crust, reminiscent of rustling autumn leaves. As the crust cracks, the smooth and sweet purple sweet potato filling flows out. It offers a delightful combination of the soft sweetness of the purple sweet potato and the crispy fragrance of the crust, leaving a lingering desire for more.
