Method

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 200°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Cook the sweet potato in a large saucepan of boiling water for 15 mins or until tender. Add the broccoli and cook for a further 5 mins or until bright green. Drain well. Use a potato masher to mash until almost smooth. Add the peas, corn and cheddar and stir to combine.
  2. Step 2

    Shape the mixture into 12 nuggets. Place the flour, egg and breadcrumbs in separate bowls. Dip 1 nugget in the flour and turn to lightly coat. Dip in the egg, then coat in breadcrumbs. Place on the lined tray. Repeat with the remaining nuggets.
  3. Step 3

    Spray the nuggets with olive oil spray. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown and crisp, making sure to turn the nuggets halfway through cooking. Serve immediately.

Recipe tip

Serve with Greek-style yoghurt and tomato sauce or sweet chilli sauce.
