Sweet Potato Salad (Slatit batata helwa)

Naturally Savvy Recipes

Boil the sweet potatoes in just enough water to cover.

Stir in the ginger, cinnamon, harissa, lemon, honey and salt and boil for about 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are cooked but not falling apart.

The sauce should be thick, almost syrup-like.

If it isn't, lift out the potatoes and boil the sauce until it is thicker.

When the sauce is done, mix in the coriander, olives and capers.
