Easy sweet potato side dish
I love gardening and trying to grow new kinds of plants. My in-laws are lovely people who let me grow things in their garden now that we live nearer to them, and not everything is possible to grow (, or fit) on a balcony.
This year I decided to try to grow sweet potatoes for the first time in my life. This project started already at the beginning of the year by immersing a store-bought sweet potato into water to start growing some slips. A few weeks ago, I then inserted the longest slips into their own glass of water to grow roots. Today I transplanted those in the ground.
I won't be knowing before the end of the summer if this experiment was a success or failure, but this recipe will be the first one I'll be cooking if I end up getting some harvest.
Roasted Sweet potatoes
