Cardamom Mashed Sweet Potatoes

Features:
    Cuisine:

    For taste and presentation I would give this 5 stars plus but the spinach amount is too vague-1 bunch really doesn't tell me how much because there are all different "bunch" sizes. used just over 2 cups of fresh spinach chopped. Perhaps a bit more cardamon . We loved the dish - It is attractive, tasty and so healthy. I didn't use any butter just No oil spray. Thanks for a lovely vegetable dish that will brighten any meal

    Cardamom Mashed Sweet Potatoes, What you see is what you get but the cardamom is a nice surprise The recipe is from the World Food Cafe in London (UK) They offer a sweet pepper relish with it but I’d prefer thinly sliced sweet peppers in a sweet sour vinaigrette For vegetarians this is fine as a main dish but I can see this as a nice side dish for roast lamb or even chicken I have altered the recipe slightly to my taste and if you want to go vegan use vegetable oil instead of butter I find adding the honey too sweet but taste and decide Also, I prefer white pepper in combination with cardamom It’s your call Do not use canned peas That would be horrible Apparently the recipe originated in Tanzania on a visit to a game reserve The cook was creatively catering to a vegetarian , For taste and presentation I would give this 5 stars plus but the spinach amount is too vague-1 bunch really doesn’t tell me how much because there are all different bunch sizes used just over 2 cups of fresh spinach chopped Perhaps a bit more cardamon We loved the dish – It is attractive, tasty and so healthy I didn’t use any butter just No oil spray Thanks for a lovely vegetable dish that will brighten any meal
