cooked sweet potato

[maytreefrannie]

Ideas please for using MASHED cooked sweet potato - it's a bit overcooked and quite soft.

Thanks.

Jose 30 minute meals has an amazing one with mango chutney in it

That was supposed to say Jamie's not Jose!

We do mashed sweet potato and carrot with a knob of butter and cumin in - delish!

You could top a cottage/shepherd's pie with it. Or eat it mashed with some butter? Or , perhaps make some veggie burgers from it?

Sweat a finely chopped onion with a crushed clove of garlic, a sprinkle of chilli and a tsp of ground cumin, cook a tin of kidney beans (or cannelini/borlotti/pinto), drain them and mash them - mix this all together, add a tbsp of plain flou, mix in. Mould into burger shapes, pop in the fridge for a bit then fry them in a little olive oil. Or freeze them and use them when you are ready (but don't stack them unless you has wax discs).

mash with butter and sugar .... then sprinkle some cinammon into it .... this is the way we ate it in South Africa

Freeze it in portions then use when you need it if you have a tad too much or try making croquettes.

Thanks a million for all the suggestions - I can't wait to try them and am beginning to wish I had MORE cooked sweet potato than I have!

Sweet potato pie - the BEST way to eat it!

[maytreefrannie]

I've tried a couple of the above suggestions - the vege burgers and eating with butter, (a little) sugar and cinnamon. Delicious and I plan to try the rest when I have some more leftover sweet potato.

Thanks again.

I think they are best cooked like baked potatoes in the oven- delicious!

Sweet potato and french bean pasties, add a little Grated ginger, chili, turmeric, cumin, coriander salt and pepper, put into pastry cases - they taste wonderful, even my kids like them

Yay! Today I came across sweet potato on offer at the supermarket - 3 packs for 2 euro, with about 4 medium size potatoes in each. This shop does this 3 packs / €2 offer on different veg sometimes.

Now I can get going and try some more of these suggestions.
