We had a stockpile of sweet potato earlier this week and I thought it was too common to just roast the sweet potato and eat it as it is (though it is delicious). Hence I figured this salad to put the dish into our dinner's menu.
Ingredients
Heaps of sweet potato (cleaned and coarsely chopped into medium-large chunks)
2 stems of fresh celery (finely chopped)
5 tbsp of golden syrup
4 tbsp mayonnaise
dash of hot paprika or chili powder
shredded mozzarella cheese (as much as you like!)
salt and pepper to taste
lemon juice
Method
1. Roast the sweet potato in a preheated oven for at least 45 minutes at 240 degrees Celsius. Meanwhile, prepare the celery and rinse in cold water until use. After the first round of roasting, remove sweet potato from oven, leave to rest for a while, add the golden syrup and mix well using spoons. Roast for another 10-15 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are really soft. The golden syrup should give the sweet potatoes a light coat of crust.
2. Upon removal from oven, mix all the ingredients together and the dish is ready to serve. This is important as the cheese needs the heat from the sweet potato to be melted.
