Sweet Potato Salad with Baby Spinach and Feta |
Sweet Potato Salad with Baby Spinach and Feta. The flavour of this salad sparkles with the subtle depth and bright note
of acidity from Balsamic vinegar. Baby spinach is amazingly easy to
grow, as seeds germinate in cool weather. I started mine outdoors in
containers around the mid-April and 3-4 weeks later, they were ready for
harvest. Its tartness tempered by the natural sweetness of tasty,
low-calorie roasted orange sweet potatoes.

- Preheat a grill or broiler to medium-high. Place the potato slices, 2 tbsp olive oil, salt and pepper in a bowl. Toss well. Place them in a single layer on a baking sheet, and broil until they are nicely caramelised, 5 minutes on each side. Adjust the oven to the bake setting at the temperature 180C/350F. Cook for 15 minutes until they are fork tender.
- Toss baby spinach, toasted almonds, and red onions together and divide the mixture into two serving plates. Top with crumbled feta.
- Whisk the balsamic, olive oil, honey and mustard together. Season well. Pile sweet potato slices on top of the salad and drizzle with the dressing.
