Notes
(1) You will also need oil for frying. However, if you'd like to bake these instead of frying them, preheat the oven to 350 and line a large cookie sheet with a nonstick pad, or greased layer of foil. Portion the mixture onto the sheet the same way you would into the pan and bake for 18-25 minutes until golden brown and firm. The baked version doesn't develop a crust or hold together quite as well as the fried version but still tastes wonderful.(2) Goat cheese is a lower-lactose (read: easier for your body to process) alternative to cow's milk cheese that seems to be ok, occasionally, for those who don't have a serious lactose allergy. Take that promise with a grain of salt because I have only really tested the hypothesis on a patient population of one (uh, me). So, skip it if you're nervous, or replace with ricotta if lactose isn't an issue but cost is.(3) I used white sweet potatoes, but this would work just as well with the regular ones. Also, you can use all carrots or all sweet potatoes if that makes grocery shopping easier.(4) Skip the salmon to make this vegetarian.
