Instructions:

1. Preparation:
- Peel and cube the sweet potatoes and regular potatoes.
- Cut the cauliflower into small florets.
- Chop the scallions (green onions).
2. Cook the Vegetables:
- Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil. Add the cubed sweet potatoes and regular potatoes. Boil them for about 10-12 minutes until they are tender and easily pierced with a fork.
- In another pot or steamer, cook the cauliflower florets until tender, about 8-10 minutes.
- Drain the potatoes and cauliflower, set aside to cool slightly.
3. Mash the Vegetables:
- Once the vegetables are cool enough to handle, transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
- Mash the sweet potatoes, regular potatoes, and cauliflower together until you get a smooth mixture.
4. Add Flavorings and Mix:
- Stir in the curry paste, making sure it's evenly distributed throughout the vegetable mash.
- Add the chopped scallions for a fresh, zesty flavor.
- Mix in the all-purpose flour to bind the mixture together.
- Crack the egg into the bowl and mix thoroughly.

5. Form the Patties:
- Take small portions of the mixture (about a handful) and shape them into patties.
- Place the formed patties onto a tray or plate.
6. Coat with Bread Crumbs:
- Pour the bread crumbs onto a separate plate.
- Gently press each patty into the bread crumbs, coating all sides evenly.
7. Cook the Patties:
- Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat with a little oil.
- Once the oil is heated, place the patties in the pan. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
8. Serve:
- Remove the patties from the pan and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
- Serve the Thai Red Curry Sweet Potato Patties warm with your favorite dipping sauce or as a part of a meal.

Tips:

- Ensure that the sweet potatoes and potatoes are cooked until they are tender for easy mashing.

- Chop the cauliflower into small pieces to ensure it cooks evenly and blends well with the other ingredients.

- If the mixture is too wet, add a bit more flour or bread crumbs to achieve the desired consistency.

- For a spicier kick, add a bit more red curry paste or a pinch of red pepper flakes.

- Use a non-stick skillet to fry the patties to avoid sticking and ensure they cook evenly.

- Drain the patties on paper towels after frying to remove any excess oil.
