1 lb (450 g) sweet potato (about 1 large sweet potato)

1 onion, cut into chunks

1 clove garlic, thinly sliced

1/2 cup (90 g) quinoa, rinsed and drained

1/4 cup (40 g) unbleached all-purpose flour

1 pinch allspice

1 pinch cayenne pepper

1 pinch ground cinnamon

1 tbsp (15 ml) olive oil

With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Oil a 9-inch (23 cm) tart pan with removable bottom.

With a fork, pierce the sweet potato several times and place it on a plate. Microwave for 6 to 8 minutes or until tender, turning halfway through cooking. Let rest for 5 minutes. Cut the sweet potato in half and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Coarsely crush with a fork to obtain about 3/4 cup (180 ml) of mashed sweet potato. Set aside.

In a food processor, finely chop the onion and garlic. Add the mashed sweet potato and process until smooth. Transfer to a bowl. Stir in the raw quinoa, flour and spices. Season with salt and pepper. Spread the mixture into the tart pan. With moistened fingers, press the mixture into an even layer. Brush the surface with the oil.

Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until lightly golden brown and firm to the touch.
