Superseed Roast Sweet Potato

March 01

A pack of sweet potatoes can be easily transformed to dinner and if your a fan of the humble baked potato, maybe this recipe is for you. When roasted, sweet potatoes turn deeply caramelised and produce tender vibrant orange flesh. The topping choices are endless but I’ve provided you with one with a nod to health conscious eating.

Method

  1. 1. Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/Gas Mark 6. Place the potatoes on a baking tray and drizzle with about a tablespoon of rapeseed oil. Bake in the oven for 45 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.
  2. 2. Meanwhile, heat the remaining rapeseed oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the kale and fry for 3 – 4 minutes, until wilted and tender.
  3. 3. Mix the yoghurt and sriracha sauce together and set aside.
  4. 4. Stir through the garlic and chilli flakes, and season. Slice open the baked sweet potatoes. Top with the kale, a dollop of the yoghurt mix, a sprinkle of seeds, chickpeas and some alfalfa sprouts.

Fishani’s Sweet Potato Doughnuts

November 28

Doughnuts are not necessarily the first thing I thought of when I imagined the cuisine of Malawi but these little fritters popped up at most of the markets we visited close to Lilongwe. I was taught how to make them by Fishani Nyirenda and her daughter Winnie Banda. Orange fleshed sweet potato was only recently introduced to Africa as means of dealing with Vitamin A deficiency, it also has a high yield, making it a reliable crop for local farmers.

Herby Sweet Potato Chips

These sweet and spicy little wedges knock the socks off greasy fast food chips any day. If you haven’t tried sweet potatoes before, this is a great introduction recipe, where you just can’t go wrong. Serve as a nice side dish or a quick and tasty snack! If I am serving these as a side dish, I generally prepare them first and let them cook away in the oven while I get on with the rest of the dinner.
