- 1/4 cup cornmeal
- 1 egg, beaten
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage

Cooking Tips:
- Make sure to squeeze out any excess moisture from the grated sweet potato before mixing it with the other ingredients.
- Use a cookie scoop or spoon to portion out the fritter batter for even cooking.

2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add enough vegetable oil to coat the bottom of the pan.
3. Using a cookie scoop or spoon, portion out the fritter batter and drop it into the hot oil. Flatten the fritters slightly with the back of a spoon.
4. Fry the fritters for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
5. Remove the fritters from the pan and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
