Squash And Sweet Potato Croquettes

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 small onion, diced
• 4 ounces sweet potato, diced
• 1 cup cooked winter squash (or sub more sweet potato)
• 1/2 cup cooked chickpeas
• 1 dash hot sauce (optional)
• 1 dash turmeric
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon finely minced ginger root
• 1 tablespoon flour
• 2 tablespoons yogurt, for serving

1. Preheat the oven to 400u0b0F.
2. Saute the onion in oil over medium heat. When it starts to soften, add the sweet potato and garlic and continue to cook until the sweet potato has softened. (The smaller you cut the pieces, the quicker this will happen.)
3. Mash the chickpeas with a fork or in a food processor. Add the squash, salt, spices, hot sauce, and ginger. When the onion mixture is ready, add it to the mash. Stir in the flour.
4. Brush a baking sheet with oil. Form the mixture into four even patties, flattening them with your palm. Bake for 10 minutes, then carefully flip each pancake and bake for 10 minutes more.
5. Serve with a dollop of yogurt, a squeeze of lemon juice, and some chopped cilantro. You can also make a sandwich by stuffing the patties into pita.
