easy sweet potato rosti
These are so tasty that even my husband who has decided he doesn’t like sweet potatoes loves them! And for him to go back for seconds on a veggie dish is high praise indeed! They could be served for breakfast with a poached egg on top or alongside a green salad for lunch. For most people 3-4 rosti would be enough for lunch – although my husband did eat 6 the first time I cooked these for him!!

the health boost tip
Sweet potatoes are one of the best sources of beta-carotene, which in most people converts to vitamin A. They are also a great source of vitamin C, manganese, copper, vitamin B6 and dietary fibre.
