Method
- Prick the sweet potatoes all over with a fork, then microwave on high for 5-7 mins until cooked through. Set aside to cool.
- Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Peel off the sweet potato skin and put the flesh in a food processor (or mash in a bowl). Add the chickpeas, garlic, garam masala, breadcrumbs, chilli and spring onions. Season well, then pulse until just combined but still chunky. Shape into 8 patties.
- Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat and fry 4 patties at a time, for 2 mins each side, until lightly golden. Transfer to a lightly oiled baking tray. Repeat with the remaining oil and patties, then bake for 20 mins.
- Meanwhile, mix the mayonnaise and harissa in a small bowl, then spread over the centre of 4 wraps, followed by the rocket and cucumber. Top each with 2 patties, squeeze over the lemon and roll up to serve.
