Makes a nice change to normal potato salad to serve with BBQ'd meats etc.. Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs orange sweet potatoes, cut into slices |
3 tablespoons olive oil |
1 pinch salt and pepper |
4 ounces baby spinach |
4 tablespoons pine nuts, toasted |
1 red onion, cut into thin wedges |
7 ounces feta cheese, crumbled |
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar |
2 tablespoons clear honey |
1 tablespoon coarse grain mustard |
Directions:
1. Simmer the sweet potato slices in salted water for about 5 minutes until only just turning tender (they cook quicker than ordinary potatoes). Drain, cool, then toss with 2 tbs olive oil and season.
2. Heat the barbecue and cook the sweet potato slices for a few minutes each side, carefully turning only once, until completely tender and very chargrilled.
3. Toss the spinach, pine nuts and red onion together and scatter over a large serving platter. Top with the feta.
4. Whisk the balsamic, 1 tbsp olive oil, honey and mustard together and season well.
5. Pile the sweet potato on top of the salad and drizzle with the dressing.
