Recipes

Do you ever eat sweet potato? No? Then it's really time to discover this superfood.

Contrary to what the name suggests, the sweet potato (a.k.a. bataat) isn't actually a potato but a type of vegetable. As the name does suggest, the sweet potato tastes delightfully sweet.

Recipe

Ingredients

Sweet potato (1 per person)
jar of gherkins

Stuffed sweet potato – superfood dish

1. Wash the sweet potatoes well and prick holes in them with a fork.

2. You can choose to wrap them in aluminum foil and roast them in the oven for about an hour. I'm not a huge fan of using the microwave, but every now and then it's more convenient. Are you going to use the microwave? Put the clean, fork‑pricked potatoes (without foil!!) in the microwave and set it for 5 minutes at 900 watts. Then turn the potatoes over and put them back in for another 5 minutes at 90 watts. Now test them: does the fork go in easily, and does the inside of the sweet potato 'stick' to it? If so, they're done. If not, give them a little more time in the microwave.

3. Meanwhile, chop the gherkins and red onion into pieces. The amount depends on how many potatoes you have. Mix this with a few spoonfuls of corn, a generous splash of olive oil and tabasco to taste.

4. Finely chop the parsley and mix it with the yogurt and the ras el hanout spices. Cut a small lid off the sweet potatoes and scoop out some of the inside. Now fill them with the pickle mixture and top with a generous spoonful of the yogurt. Scatter some sliced olives over the top and serve with a fresh salad. Enjoy!

Cooking mode Prevents your screen from going to sleep

This dish is lovely as a complete meal on its own, but you can also serve it with a fresh green salad. The combination of the soft sweet potato, the spicy pickle mixture and the herby yogurt makes for a surprisingly tasty plate.

Feel free to vary the filling to suit your taste. You can leave out the tabasco for a milder version, or add extra vegetables to the mix. Sweet potato is also rich in fiber and vitamins, which makes this dish extra worthwhile.
