Vegie Patties

As ever, please make sure you know your own tolerance threshold :)
400g white skinned potatoes
1 large zucchini (gourgette) coarsely grated
250g orange sweet potato, peeled & coarsely grated
1 carrot, coarsely grated
1/2 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
3/4 cup flatleaf parsley or coriander or similar herb of choice
1/2 tsp sea salt
3 free-range eggs, lightly beaten
120g spelt flour (or other flour of choice)
Crisco Sunflower oil (no anti oxidants), for cooking
Preheat oven to 200C
Line baking tray with baking paper
Place the potato & zucchini in a colander, using hands to squeeze out as much moisture as possible
Put into a large bowl, add the carrot, sweet potato, ginger, parsley, salt, eggs and 80g of the flour
Stir well until well combined
Cover & set aside for 15 mins
Take 1/4 cup of mixture at a time and form into patties
Roll in the remaining flour to coat both sides
Heat a small amount of the oil in a large fry pan over medium heat
Cook the patties in small batches for 3-4 minutes on each side
Transfer to the prepared tray and bake for approx 20 minutes
Serve with a small salad or favourite side
