1. Prepare the Filling
Roast or boil the sweet potato until soft, mash it.
In a pan, sauté red onion in a little olive oil until soft and slightly caramelized.
Mix mashed sweet potato, sautéed onion, cheese, cumin (if using), salt, and pepper. Add chopped herbs if desired.
Let the filling cool slightly before wrapping.
2. Roll the Cigars
Lay out one wrapper with a corner facing you (diamond shape).
Place 1–2 tablespoons of filling near the bottom.
Fold the bottom over the filling, fold in sides, then roll up tightly into a cigar shape.
Seal the edge with water or egg wash.
Repeat for all cigars.
3. Cook
Option 1: Fry (for maximum crispness)
Heat oil to 350°F (175°C) and fry cigars for 2–3 minutes per side until golden. Drain on paper towels.
Option 2: Bake (lighter version)
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place cigars on a baking sheet, brush or spray with olive oil.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.
🍽️ Serving Ideas

Add to a mezze platter with olives, hummus, and salad.
