NC native sweet potato and I had never seen before . But Now I see them at grocery stores. They are mildly sweet and needs to be cooked little longer .
If you see them, try it out. Taste different.
Enjoy!

Mint Paratha With Potato Curry
Good combination. Isn’t it ? With a salad of cucumber and home grown alfalfa sprouts.
I like to make salad with different ingredients and not just add everything everyday. This way it stays interesting and you don’t get bored.
Enjoy!

Instant Fig Jam
Got few figs y’day. It was a surprise and few were more than few I could eat. For breakfast, made instant fig jam. Few still left.
Chop figs roughly. Start cooking and add little fresh lemon juice. Throw 1-2 cloves and small stick of cinnamon.
Now if you have orange , add little zest of it . Gives a very good flavor.
When water is almost gone from figs, remove from heat. Add some chia seeds to thicken jam.
Voila , jam ready. I am having it on a toast with goat cheese .
Enjoy!
