Friday, 6 March 2009

My task (volunteered) was to bring some sweet potato snacks to the luncheon following the service.
With my usual aplomb, I purchased the yams yesterday morning, presented them to Andy with the request for sweet potato chips. The man can cook!
So here is what he did:
- Sliced yams very thinly (now asking for a mandolin slicer LOL)
- heated the oil in a deep pan and dropped in the sliced yams
- let them cook until a deep golden colour began to bloom on them
- removed to a layer of paper towel to drain, sprinkled with paprika and sea salt
- some experimentation was needed to get temps/ times just right and ensure a crispy chip
I am not sure that they were very representative of the food from PNG, but they were tasty!

Yummy. I would love to make them but I would not even attempt without the mandolin. You have me ready to Google Papua New Guinea off to read up. Have a nice weekend.
Uhhh... sounds good! :0)
We will have to try them some time.
My hubby is an amazing cook as well!!! Don't you love it??
I sure do.
Have a great evening!
They sound good, I'm sure the boys would love them! think I'll use a cheese slicer though! SIL lived in PNG years ago and she and my brother are planning a trip back soon, it sounds like an AMAZING place!
Did you use sweet potatoes or yams though???
Give them a try! Actually we used yams (in Canda it is mostly yams we get and use interchangeably with sweet potatoes, though I don't think we usually get reall sweet potatoes in the boonies LOL)
