Ingredients
It’s this easy
- Preheat a fan forced oven to 200˚C. Line a baking sheet with baking paper and set aside.
- Wash sweet potato well.
- Lay the sweet potato on a paper towel to remove. Press down on it to remove as much moisture as possible from the potato. Toss the potato ribbons a few times and repeat until it appears dry.
- Mix the breadcrumbs, parmesan and pepper in bowl. Spread the breadcrumb mixture evenly on top of sweet potato.
- Peel the sweet potato into a bowl to create sweet potato ribbons. Include the skin.
- Lay the sweet potato ribbons on top of the baking paper.
- Spray the top of the sweet potato with olive oil spray.
- Cook in the oven for 30 minutes until lightly browned and crispy.
- Let slightly cool. Break into pieces and enjoy!
Tweaks
- For a smokey flavour add a tablespoon of smoked paprika to the breadcrumb and parmesan mixture.
- If you have extra ingredients in your household, try adding extra spices to the sweet potato. Rosemary, garlic powder, and cumin will all work well.
- No sweet potato? Why not try this with carrot instead.
- For extra zing finish with a squeeze of lemon.
