They’re somewhat reminiscent of hash browns, but made with sweet potatoes, bite-sized, and loaded with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and drizzled truffle mayonnaise. Can’t beat that combination if you ask me!

These deep-fried Sweet Potato Bites with Parmesan & Truffle Mayo are honestly great to serve as a snack but also do really well as individual bites for an appetizer or a party. They're soft on the inside, and crunchy on the outside, topped with savory Parmesan cheese, and creamy truffle mayonnaise.

How to Make Fried Sweet Potato Bites

  • After washing and peeling your sweet potatoes, pat them fully dry with a kitchen towel, then grate them, and transfer to a bowl.
  • Heat up a deep frying pan with plenty of oil or, turn your deep-fryer on and set it to 350°F or 180°C.
  • Either grate or finely dice your red onion, then add it to the grated sweet potatoes.
  • Crack the eggs and add them to the bowl, then mix everything together.
  • Season the mixture with plenty of black pepper and salt.
  • Add half the Parmesan cheese, and the flour, and mix once more.
  • Take about a heaping spoonful of the sweet potato batter and shape it into little oval bites. Line them up on a plate so they can all go into the pan in quick succession to each other.
  • Carefully drop the sweet potato batter into the oil, one by one. They best keep their shape when you carefully scoop the batter into the oil with two spoons.
  • Fry the sweet potato bites until crispy and golden brown. Unless you plan on serving them later on, then just undercook them, and finish them off just before serving.
  • Let the fried potato bites drain on some kitchen towel, then either transfer them to a plate to make it into one dish, or line them up on a serving dish to serve them as individual bites.
  • Finish the sweet potato bites off by sprinkling the rest of the Parmesan cheese over them, and either drizzle some truffle mayo over it or add a dollop of mayo on top. Serve & enjoy!
