Instructions
- Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Lightly grease a baking sheet with olive oil.
- Make sauce: Mix together sour cream, jalapeño pepper, lime juice, and salt in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate.
- Make cakes: Heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir green onions in hot oil until softened, about 1 minute. Stir in jalapeño peppers, garlic, and cumin; cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Transfer green onion mixture to a large bowl. Stir in black beans; mash with a fork. Season with salt and pepper. Mix in sweet potato, bread crumbs, and beaten egg until well combined. Divide mixture into 8 balls, flatten into patties, and place on the prepared baking sheet.
- Cook under the preheated broiler for 8 to 10 minutes. Turn patties over and continue broiling until crispy, about 3 minutes more. Serve with sauce.
