Purple sweet potatoes

About

Not just a treat for the eyes, vibrant purple sweet potatoes are a nutritional powerhouse. Their colour comes from a rich concentration of polyphenols and antioxidants (the same ones found in blueberries). Their flesh is a little denser and more floury than standard sweet potatoes, but their creamy flavour is very similar.

Their sweetness works beautifully with fresh, zingy flavours – try setting them off with garlic, lime, ginger, or fresh herbs.

How to prepare

Good baked or mashed. Sweet potatoes cook a little faster than a conventional spud, so they’re ideal for simple, speedy weeknight dinners. Roast whole, skin on, then top with butter and a scrunch of seasoning, cottage cheese, goat’s cheese, yoghurt with a squeeze of lemon – or anything else you fancy.

Storage

Delivered from our farm, so wash before cooking. Store on a cool vegetable rack.
