Steps

1
Preheat the oven to 200 °C. Pierce the sweet potato several times with a fork and roast for 40–45 minutes, or until tender.
2
Remove the skin from the roasted sweet potato and mash until smooth.
3
Add the flour, ½ cup mozzarella for the dough, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to the mash. Mix until a dough forms.
4
Place the ground beef and yellow onion in a skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper for the filling, and cook.
5
Add the spinach and cook for 1–2 minutes longer, until wilted.
6
Divide the dough into 3 portions and flatten each one.
7
Place the beef mixture in the center of each portion and add a little of the reserved mozzarella for the filling.
8
Fold the dough around the filling to seal it, then gently flatten each piece into a pocket shape.
9
Add a small amount of olive oil to a skillet and cook the pockets for 3–4 minutes per side, until golden and crispy.
10
Serve hot with Greek yogurt or your favorite dipping sauce.
