1 large onion
500 g orange sweet potatoes (kumara)
5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
¹⁄₂ teaspoon cumin
¹⁄₂ teaspoon paprika
¹⁄₂ teaspoon ground ginger
salt
green olives
¹⁄₂ tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons flat leaf parsley

In a large pan fry the chopped onion in 2 tablespoons of the oil until golden.
Cut the peeled sweet potatoes into 2.5cm cubes and add to the pan with enough water to just cover.
Add spices, a little salt and 2 more tablespoons of oil.
Cook until the potato pieces are tender, and the liquid reduced to a sauce, turning the potatoes over.
