TIP!
The origin of the sweet potato, as with the potato, is Latin America. But more and more we see these tubers being grown in Europe as well and getting their place in her cuisine. Apart from the fact that this potato variety is also very nutritious, it has nice textures and lots of flavour to come up with beautiful cold, lukewarm and hot recipes. Works perfectly as mashed, crushed, boiled, fried and baked.
