1 Sauté the onion in olive oil in a pan over a moderate heat for 5 minutes, until softened. Mix in the garlic and caraway seeds then cook for 2 more minutes. Set aside to cool.
2 Grate the potatoes on the coarse blade of a box grater, then squeeze to remove as much liquid as possible. Mix with the onions, sweet potato flour, ghee and dill. Season with salt and pepper.
