Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the sweet potatoes and bell pepper. Add the arrowroot and toss to coat. Puree the garbanzo beans in a food processor to a coarse paste. Add the egg, curry powder, salt, and cilantro and blend until just combined. Stir the garbanzo mixture into the potato mixture. Finally, stir in the mustard seeds.
- In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. (The oil should be about ½ inch) Working in batches, drop the batter by heaping tablespoons into the hot oil.

Serve hot with Spicy Cranberry Chutney and/or Dill Cream.
