2 Way Baked Kumara (White Flesh or 'bush Bok' Sweet Potato)
"These are so good! Tesco's are selling these under the name 'bush bok sweet potatoes' in the exotic veg section. White fleshed sweet potatoes are not always easy to spot as they look so similar to the orange fleshed variety. They have a lovely sort of chestnutty flavour. I find the white ones have a more purpleish edge to the skin. You can always scrape a bit of skin from the corner of 1 to find out. They really are worth hunting out and are best eaten plain with butter salt and pepper (Don't bother with any fillings) and perhaps some salad, or as they do in Mexico for a sweet snack, with butter condensed milk and cinnamon. Gorgeous!"

I come from a family of food loves, in fact its the subject we talk about most! I've been trying to write a cookbook for years but always hit stumbling blocks or wanted to go in another direction. Its not as easy as it looks! I've decided to upload my all time favorite recipes onto this website. Trust me when I say that good recipes don't make it onto my page, only the truly great and AMAZINGLY TASTY or ingenious and unusual ones do. Most are tried and tested but some I just give the general idea for. You get the gist! I really appriciate your reviews and comments so If you've made or tasted one of my recipes then please leave me some feedback!
