You’ve probably heard of Bacalhau or for my Surinamese peeps out there ‘Bakkeljauw’? This salted fish is a staple of the Portuguese cuisine, but also very known in the Surinamese kitchen! I’m combining this delicious ingredient with my favourite potato and snack. Sweet Potato Bacalhau Croquettes anyone?

Since my website is called The Spiced Chickpea, I thought I might as well kick off with a spicy Sweet Potato Chickpea burger recipe! It was last year that I actually started appreciating these sweet-tasting roots. Not only was it a good excuse for me to pack loads of vitamins and fibre into my diet, I also learned that this was a healthy and equally tasty alternative to fries! But we are not here to talk about fries. Are we? You came here for a Sweet Potato Chickpea burger and I shall give you one!
