Switch things up a little by using sweet potatoes instead of the usual white potatoes. They’ll add color and a slightly sweet layer of flavor to your breakfast or brunch.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds of sweet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- ¼ cup water
- Salt to taste
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400° F.
Peel and chop the sweet potatoes into small chunks.
Place half of the olive oil in a large saucepan and heat to medium high. Add the potatoes and sauté for 6-8 minutes, until the potatoes start to brown and soften. Turn the potatoes to brown all sides.
Add the water and cook for 6-8 minutes, until the water steams off, further softening the potatoes. Turn off the heat.
Add the remaining olive oil and salt to the saucepan and stir.
Pour the potato mixture onto 1 or 2 large baking sheets. Bake for 10 minutes. Serve hot.
