Sweet potato with chorizo

[2008-7-16]

Tag : potato, sweet potato

The humble sweet potato is a much neglected food in South Africaand it's quite sad, because it adds flavour to many dishes and isalso quite superb all on its own.

I love baked sweet potato, peeled open and helped along by just apinch of salt and a blob of butter. This way it goes particularlywell with roast pork.

Another easy and delicious way to do sweet potato is to scrub itclean, slice it into wedges, brush it with olive oil and then toroast it in a fairly hot oven until golden yellow, which is exactlyhow we will do it in this recipe.

The rich, spicy chorizo sausage is a perfect mate for the sweetpotato and fresh baby spinach adds colour and flavour to this dish.

When it comes to sweet potatoes we normally have a choice of thered- or white-skinned versions. For roasting I generally prefer thered version.

To serve four portions you need: 4 small to medium sweet potatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
2-4 chorizo sausages, sliced into thick rounds
150g baby spinach (or rocket leaves)
80g feta cheese crumbled
1 juicy orange, sliced into four wedges
Salt and pepper
Instructions:
Scrub potatoes clean and cut into wedges.
Pre-heat the oven to 200
