Serves 2-4

 

Ingredients:

  • 1 large sweet potato

  • 2 twigs fresh oregano

  • 1 small handful fresh basil

  • 3 cloves fresh garlic

  • ¼ cup avocado oil

 

Instructions:

  1. Peel sweet potato and cut into rounds

    • Thinner will cook faster and be crispier, thicker will be ‘meatier’

  4. Chop basil

  5. Chop or mince garlic

  6. Add oil to a skillet

  7. Place cut potato slices into oil

  8. Add rosemary (or sage), oregano, basil, and garlic

  9. Cover at a slight angle to allow ventilation

  10. Cook on medium heat

  11. When the potatoes start to brown, flip

  12. When they are cooked to your desired tenderness and brownness (20-30 minutes, less time if thinner sliced), plate and serve
