This is my wee contribution to all those posts I'm seeing featuring tasty things: last night's dinner. It's one of the easiest and tastiest meals I know and it's pretty healthy too!
Ingredients:
- sweet potatoes
- feta
- chilli
- lime
Instructions:
- Put the sweet potatoes in the oven at 200 Celsius/centigrade
- Chop chillies
- Crumble feta into a bowl
- Add chillies
- Squeeze in lime juice (I only used half)
- Stir and leave so the flavours can make friends
- Serve when sweet potatoes are ready (this is the only downside to the recipe, sweet potatoes take f-o-r-e-v-e-r to bake)
i thought it was funny how i've been quite anal and sliced my sweet potato into quarters whilst CNN's is just a mess |
It might look spicy, but it's not. The creaminess of the cheese really melds with the chilli to take the heat off, not to mention the sweet potato underneath.
This recipe was given to me by Helen. We taught English together in London. Helen is a knitter, a former ballet dancer, a mother and grandmother and all-round incredible woman. We didn't keep in touch after I left teaching but I do miss her.
I love the stories that food can tell.
Sounds yummy! I love sweet potatoes.
ReplyDeletep.s. the photo in my recipes post was actually chocolate and dried cherries, which are delicious but nearly impossible to find here. When i do find them though, i make up a batch of dark chocolate chunk cookies with dried cherries and they're to die for!
Hey marfio! First of all, I swear I didn't pose any animals at the zoo :) Have you been yet? It's pretty fun. And secondly, what's your email address? I'd be happy to scan that recipe for cookies and email it to you. They're pretty yummy!
ReplyDeleteOh yum this looks so good and simple, baked sweet potato is yum-o worth the wait for it to bake definitely.
