Ingredients

1/2 pound sweet potato , peeled and grated through the large grates of a box grater

4 Tbsp butter

Salt

Pepper

Directions

Melt 2 Tbsp of butter in a cast iron pan on medium high heat. Note that you want the heat high enough so that the butter bubbles, but not so high that it browns or burns before you put the sweet potato in the pan. Working in batches if necessary , scoop large spoonfuls of grated sweet potatoes into the pan forming small mounds. Gently press to spread the mounds out a bit. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook undisturbed until they are nicely browned on one side, about 4 to 5 minutes, then carefully turn them over with a metal spatula to brown on the other side, 4 to 5 minutes more. When done, place on a cookie sheet in a warmed oven to keep warm until ready to eat. Serve with fried eggs and bacon!.
