  • Combine sweet potato, onion mixture, lentils, salt, and pepper using a fork. Shape into 8 patties and lightly coat both sides with breadcrumbs.
  • Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Cook patties in batches for 2 minutes on each side until golden. Place the patties on plates, spoon over the sauce, sprinkle with remaining basil, and serve with rocket.
