RECIPE - 3X SWEET POTATO
The sweet potato is such a great addition to your meal. As an extra vegetable but also as a replacement for the normal potato. Mashed, as fries or of course baked. It is so diverse and easy to prepare. If you are firing up the BBQ, just wrap it in tinfoil and put it between the coals or on the grill. We have found three different ways of topping your sweet potato. Just choose your favourite or prepare all of them!
Preparation of the sweet potato
Scrub the sweet potato and pierce the potato with a fork three times all over. This way the steam can come out while cooking. Now you can either wrap it in tinfoil and put it on the BBQ or prepare it in the microwave in 5 minutes. If you choose the last one, take some paper kitchen towel and wet them. Wrap them in the paper and put them in the microwave at 600 Watt or more. You can take 5 minutes per potato. So if you want to prepare three in one go, put them in for approximately 15 minutes.
