  Made these as a starter, served with a yoghurt dip and salad. Scrummy!!

  I used half quantity sweet potatoes and half quantity Maris Piper potatoes which was a lovely combination. I would leave the potatoes to cool down next time as the mixture was quite soft to handle when making the potato cakes. Still very tasty though.

  These are lovely. I only manageged to get 5 out of the mixture though. I used a little bit of finely-chopped red pepper instead of chilli, as I don't like chilli, so mine weren't spicy but still very nice. I found I didn't need anywhere near 75g breadcrumbs for coating them.

  Good texture and flavour and they kept their shape nicely when cooking. Added some garlic, might try using helf sweet potato next time.

  Delicious! I didn't have a fresh chilli so added some dried chilli flakes as well as a clove of garlic and a spoonful of creme fraiche and I made my own breadcrumbs with a baguette. I made 4 bigger cakes but should've stuck to the recommended 6 as they were a little difficult to handle. I served them with some lovely ham and green beans but to be honest would've happily eaten them on their own!

  Very nice and easy. Avoided chilli but it did not spoil the recipe. I bet bet it will be nice with any spicy tomato sous as well

  Absolutely lovely! I didn't have any spring onions, so used one small white onion and one small red onion, finely chopped, with home grown red chillis..

  Delicious, have made twice & only managed to make 4 cakes, both times- although I'm greedy, so they were quite big-lovely.

  I made these using half normal potatoes and half sweet potatoes - they were really delicious and will make again. They kept their shape whilst cooking but when on our plates they were quite soft when cutting into - eventually they looked like mashed potatoes on my plate. Any tips? I served with sweet chilli sauce and slad as a Christmas Day starter
