Add the shallot, chilli, apple, salt and pepper to taste and finally the cornflour. Portion the mixture into 4 big cakes or 6 smaller ones and shape into round, flat-faced burgers.
In a medium pan, add some oil and get it very hot, then fry the cakes for 5-10 minutes on each side until golden brown. You will be tempted to keep flipping them, but don’t. Let one side cook first before flipping and cooking the other side.
Drain on greaseproof paper or kitchen towel and serve with a good dollop of the dill yoghurt and some fresh greens.
Tip - If you do not want to fry the potato cakes, you can easily cook them in the oven at 200ºC (400ºF/Gas 6) for 20 minutes or until golden brown. The sweet potato cakes and yoghurt are both freezable.
