2
Heat the oil in a large frying pan.
3
Saute the sweet potato cubes until they pick up some color, and soften slightly (about 5 minutes; shaking constantly).

Pour in 1 cup of water and let simmer in the pan until the sweet potatoes are soft (about 10 minutes) and the water has evaporated.

6
Mash the black beans in a large bowl.
7
Mash in sweet potato, slightly, so that some of the cubes stay intact.
8
Fold in all the other ingredients.
9
Divide the mixture into 4 patties for burgers, or in desired sizes (I make mine into 2-inch sized flattened falafel shapes).
10
Place in the fridge for at least 1 hour, or until ready to cook.

To cook, fry them in a frying pan with a little bit of oil for about 4 minutes on each side.
13
An alternative option is to bake them on a baking sheet in a 350 degrees F oven for 20 minutes (flipping half way through).
14
Eat them as a burger with your favorite condiments, on top of a salad with your favorite dressing (my favorite), or in a wrap/ sandwich.

Enjoy!
