other ideas for sweet potatoes

[just1fornow]

I always do jacket potatoes with them.

what do you do with them?

They're nice as wedges. Or mixed with other root veg as mash. Sweet potato curry's good.

Yup, wedges are lovely, and mashed with cream cheese, and mashed as topping for shepherd's pie.

I make a nice soup, with carrots and coriander.

Or substitute for any potato base in a recipe.

I've had pie, but never cooked it.

Tarts
Indian potato pie
Cajun chicken with sweet potatoes

peel and cut into skinny chips, soak in cold water for 30 mins then drain and pat dry.

toss in seasoned corn flour, shaking off the excess and deep fry in small batched for 3/4mins, serve with dips of your choice alongside burgers etc

not my original recipe but it's bloody lovely!

I use them in curries with peas.

Cumin goes so well with sweet potatoes, the below is delicious and really easy - try it

Peel, chop into chunks and spread onto a baking tray, drizzle on some oil, and sprinkle with ground cumin and a little salt. Roast for about 30 mins on 180 and serve hot.

That sounds lovely Anni37.

I use them in curries and soups or make wedges. I also have a nice recipe for an African sweet potato stew but dd2 hates it so we don't have it very often!

Jamie Oliver has a gorgeous recipe.

I make these: www.rivercottage.net/recipes/hot-halloween-pumpkin-foldover/ using sweet potato and sage instead of pumpkin and thyme.

I make sweet potato wedges with Nandos seasoning. Delicious!

Sweet potato fries, Curry or soup.

WinstonWolf have you made that? It looks so divine.

Root soup - sweet pot, carrot, parsnip, ginger

I just added a couple to a beef casserole done in the slow cooker. They cooked down so much they actually ended up disintegrating into the gravy and acting like a thickener! Twas bloomin lovely though

Caribbean Fish Pie topping - delicious

Yes Curious, I've made it a couple of times now.

Hate to think of the calorie content

I cube it (around an inch cubed) and drizzle with olive oil, roast with rosemary, salt and pepper.

Or mash - my dc's adore mashed sweet potato.

Wedges with the skins on are nice.

Good in curry.

Nice with lamb in a moroccan style dish.

Makes good soup, with butternut squash.

I tried the JO sweet potato mash last night and loved it.

Dan Lepard's sweet potato brownies recipe - are really yummy and you'd never guess they had sweet potatoes in them!

Sweet potato quesadillas are a big favourite in here.

Peel, boil and mash about 1kg of sweet potatoes. Chop and fry an onion with some cumin, garlic, chilli flakes and oregano. Mix into sweet potatoes. Spread one half of a tortilla wrap with some of the potato mixture and sprinkle with some grated cheese. Fold over the other half of wrap and toast until golden on each side. Nice with sour cream and salsa for dipping.
