Sweet Potato Salad (Slatit batata helwa) image

This Moroccan salad is both sweet and spicy. I like the olives and capers in it, but you could just as easily leave them out. I also wonder if it would be good with a handful of raisins, instead of the olives?

Categories     Potato

Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into cubes
3/4 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 teaspoons harissa or 2 teaspoons chili peppers
1 lemon, juiced
2 teaspoons honey
salt
4 tablespoons coriander
100 -200 g black olives, to taste
1/4 cup capers (to taste)

Steps:

  • Boil the sweet potatoes in just enough water to cover.
  • Stir in the ginger, cinnamon, harissa, lemon, honey and salt and boil for about 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are cooked but not falling apart.
  • The sauce should be thick, almost syrup-like.
  • If it isn't, lift out the potatoes and boil the sauce until it is thicker.
  • When the sauce is done, mix in the coriander, olives and capers.
  • Cool and serve as an appetizer.
