Steam the sweet potato : cut it into cubes and cook it in a steamer during 15 minutes.

When it's cooked, mash it with a fork.
In a bowl, mix the chickpea flour, the chopped garlic cloves and parsley, the cumin, the lemon juice, the salt and the chili pepper.

Add the sweet potato and mix it all with your hands. The paste has to be a bit sticky. Add some water if needed.
Preheat your oven to 350°F.
