Sweet Potatoes

[czc]

I have a 15Kg bag of sweet potatoes.

What can I do with the sweet potatoes?

Any recipes you have done that worked?

This recipe from Gordon Ramsey for pork chops & crushed sweet potato "mash" is great. Really love it. There is a video link above the description.

I just had a big bag as well.
Sweet potato "mash" is fantastic and so are sweet potato "chips".
Can eat them every day.

Yep, even baked sweet potatoes are nice, also much faster than baked potatoes.

also not bad in the microwave (about 4/5 minutes per medium sized sweet potato and its cooked).

Tried chips now. First peeled of slices or grated and fried that, didn't work out, came out to burnt.

So instead cut thin pieces. It was quite tasty, strangely addictive.

Some more in the oven now baking, just peeled and covered in oil and salt. I'll see how that comes out.

I had a previous thread on sweet potatoes here and some of the posters gave me some fantastic recipes. Do a search.

Sweet potato chips/wedges made in the oven are awesome. Just slice up as you wish (after removing skin), and toss with a little bit of oil and some seasonings (salt alone is fine, but try soy sauce and pepper flakes, paprika, dired herbs) and baked until soft on the inside and slightly crunchy on the outside. So good.

Yes.

The recipe by poster SulkySue that refers to cubing the sweet potatoes, rubbing it with olive oil and sprinkling with soy sauce, honey, salt/pepper and 2 cinnamon sticks and then roasting it , is delicious.

I dont particularly like sweet potatotes .... but once tried a meal prepared similar to what bluno wrote above ... it was quite good ...

PS if you are trying to lose weight ... keep away from the stuff .... tastes pretty good so you eat more than normal ...
