• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 tablespoon minced chipotle chiles in adobo sauce
• 1 pound sweet potatoes, peeled and coarsely shredded
• 2 scallions, minced
• 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 large eggs, lightly beaten

• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 3/4 cup vegetable oil

4. In a mixing bowl, combine the sweet potatoes, scallions, flour, eggs, salt, and pepper.
5. Stir until well combined.
6. Add the oil to a skillet with high sides and place it over medium-high heat.
