Ingredients

1 small sweet potato, about 175g (6oz), coarsely grated
1 medium courgette, coarsely grated
2 Tbsp. chipotle paste (we used Santa Maria)
75 g (3oz) ground almonds
195g tin of sweetcorn, drained
small bunch coriander, chopped
bunch of spring onions, finely sliced
6 large eggs
2 avocados, peeled, stoned and chopped
zest and juice 1 lime

Directions

1. Step 1
  Preheat oven to 190°C (170°C fan) mark 5. Line two baking sheets with baking parchment.
2. Step 2
  In a large bowl mix the sweet potato, courgette, chipotle paste, ground almonds, sweetcorn, most of the coriander, half the spring onions, 2 of the eggs and some seasoning.
3. Step 3
  With wet hands, form into 12 patties and arrange on the prepared baking sheets, spacing about 4cm (11/2in) apart. Cook in the oven for 20min until golden. Bring a large, deep pan of water to the boil.
4. Step 4
  Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix the avocados with the remaining coriander and spring onions, and lime zest and juice. Set aside.
5. Step 5
  Reduce the boiling water temperature to a simmer. Crack an egg into a ramekin, then neatly pour the egg into the simmering water. Working quickly, add the remaining 3 eggs in a similar fashion. Poach for 4min – or until, when lifted out with a slotted spoon, whites feel firm but the yolk remains soft. Lift eggs out with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper.
6. Step 6
  For each person, serve three patties topped with a poached egg, with a spoonful of avocado mixture alongside.
