Sweet Potato Scramble
(4 servings)
- 1 and 1/2 cups raw sweet potato (about 2 small potatoes) - diced
-
4 slices of bacon - chopped into 1/4 inch pieces
-
6 large eggs
-
2 green onions - chopped into small pieces
-
1 teaspoon ground red chiles
-
1/4 teaspoon salt
In a large sauce pan, bring 3 cups of water to a boil. Add three dashes of salt and the sweet potatoes. Boil for two minutes. Reduce the heat and bring the water to a simmer.
Cook until the sweet potatoes are tender (3 or 4 more minutes). Drain the water from the potatoes.
In a large skillet, cook the bacon until crisp. Transfer bacon to stacked paper towels to remove excess grease. Drain the bacon grease from the pan leaving only a teaspoon or so to act as cooking oil for the scramble.
Return skillet to heat. Add potatoes and cook until browned - stirring occasionally.
In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with the the ground chiles and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
Add egg mixture to the potatoes in the skillet. Stir in bacon and chopped onion.
Once the eggs begin to set, stir and scramble with a spatula or fork.
Cook until eggs are completely set. Serve immediately.
You can use regular potatoes in this recipe but the sweet potatoes make this scramble fun and unique.
