Directions

1. Step

Wash and cut the sweet potatoes into rounds. Place them in a microwave-safe bowl, cover with water, and microwave for 10 minutes. After microwaving, let them cool slightly, then peel off the skin.

2. Step

Mash the peeled sweet potatoes in a bowl until smooth. Add honey to taste and 2 pinches of salt, mixing thoroughly. Take a handful of the mashed mixture and shape it into small, round patties. Repeat until all the mixture is used.

3. Step

Finely chop the macadamia nuts and set aside. Soak a sheet of rice paper in water until soft. Take a sweet potato patty, place a spoonful of red bean paste on top, and sprinkle with chopped macadamia nuts. Cover with another sweet potato patty and wrap the entire piece with the softened rice paper. For extra security, wrap it with a second sheet of rice paper. Repeat for all patties.
