EAT // Sweet Potato and Kipfler Salad



I recently enjoyed a lovely long lunch at Lisa Madigan's cottage. I loved it so much I asked for the recipe and took a few pics. Here it is. Oh and nothing beats our traditional shot of iced Toby's Estate coffee before our lunch!

kipfler potatoes
purple sweet potato
free range bacon
tiny capers
shallots
celery
dill
mint
oregano
flat leaf parsley
evoo - a little lug
greek style yoghurt - a couple of teaspoons
lemon juice - just a squeeze
white wine vinegar - a good splash or two
salt & pepper

+

cook sliced kipflers & sweet potato { skins on } on the stove top until tender
{  I use different saucepans so the colour doesn't leach }
slice up shallots
slice up celery
roughly cut herbs
finely slice up bacon & fry until just crispy
gently fold all ingredients together

I have recently taken to mixing my dressings in my salads, so really just throwing everything in together & then adjusting if needed to taste, or of course, mix your dressing & then fold through the salad.

Every time I make this it's different, I may add fennel, or finely slice the potatoes & make them crispy in the oven, perhaps use crispy proscuito & crumble that over the top, always amped up on the fresh herbs though.
