Pan Fried Seasoned Sweet Potato with greens

 I've made this sweet potato bowl 100 times over, I love it that much. I never tire of sweet potatoes. I think they help me a lot with curbing my sweet tooth, and i don't have to feel bad about eating it because sweet potatoes are packed with fibre, vitamins, and minerals.  They promote gut health, and help support healthy vision. I just love them. 

I know i make different variations of this dish, but the basics are always still there. A sweet potato. Large or medium. Toasted or roasted. A small army of spices. I love turmeric, red chili powder, and bringing in some cumin and garam masala. These spices just elevate the humble sweet potato. 

i love to add some sort of green, whether that be spinach, kale, or in this case, a left over bunch of greens which is composed of baby spinach, swiss chard, and tender kale. 

Of course we cannot forget some sort of decadent peanut sauce to drizzle on top. We simply must not forget this step. Almond butter. Peanut butter. Some sort of nut butter. Add in some sesame oil, or grape seed oil, maybe even some truffle oil? And melt that goodness so it is all but begging to be poured out onto your small mountain of finished potatoes. 

Sprinkle on some crunch. Toasted cashews, peanuts, pepitas. Yum Yum. In my tum. 

Let's go. 

This one calls for:

A large sweet potato, peeled and diced. 
grapeseed oil

salt & pepper 

1/2 teaspoon garam masala

1/2 teaspoon kashmiri red chili powder

1/2 teaspoon turmeric 

1/2 teaspoon cumin

sesame oil 

a handful of mixed nuts, cashews and pipits 

1/2 cup mixed greens 

1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter 

1 tablespoon almond butter

1 teaspoon honey 

a splash of sesame oil

In a large pan, toss the cut sweet potatoes in grapeseed oil. 

Add spices and stir and mix and cook. 

Add in greens and continue to pan fry till green
s are cooked down and sticking to the potatoes and mixed in well.

Add in mixed nuts. 

Remove from pan and in that same heat up pan but no added flame. mix nut butters, honey, and splash of honey. 

Drizzle directly from pan straight onto potatoes. 

Enjoy.
