Peruvian Sweet Potato And Kale Tortilla Recipes

SPANISH TORTILLA WITH SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425˚. Combine the onion, sweet potatoes, 1/4 cup olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium ovenproof nonstick skillet. Cover and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potatoes are tender but not falling apart, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Whisk the eggs in a large bowl and season with salt. Pour the potato mixture into the eggs and stir to combine. Stir in the cheese. Place the skillet over medium heat; add the egg mixture and spread out the potatoes with a rubber spatula. Cook until starting to set around the edges, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until set, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk the vinegar and mustard in a large bowl; whisk in the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil until smooth. Add the endive, almonds and 2 tablespoons chives; toss and season with salt and pepper.
• Remove the egg tortilla to a cutting board, cut into wedges and divide among plates. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon chives and serve with the endive salad.

PERUVIAN SWEET POTATO AND KALE TORTILLA

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in a large 100% oven proof skillet over medium heat.
• Add onion to the skillet and saute until translucent, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add garlic and sweet potato to the skillet and cook until the potatoes are slightly crispy, about 5 minutes.
• Add chopped kale to the skillet and continue to saute until the kale is bright green and slightly wilted.
• While the vegetables are cooking combine the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl and whisk until thoroughly blended.
• Pour the egg mixture over the cooked vegetables and, without stirring, allow to cook on medium-low heat until the eggs have almost set, about 5 minutes.
• To finish cooking the tortilla transfer the skillet to a preheated oven and broil on high (500 degrees Fahrenheit) until the top is golden brown.
• Remove the skillet from the oven and run a silicone spatula around the edge of the pan to remove the tortilla from the pan.
• Serve warm with your favorite aji or hot sauce.

VEGETARIAN ENCHILADA CASSEROLE WITH KALE AND SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• Place grated sweet potato in the bottom of the prepared baking dish, then layer with onion slices. Sprinkle with cumin seed, then layer with kale and black beans. Pour tomato sauce and salsa evenly over the dish. Sprinkle with nutritional yeast, then spread tortilla strips on top.
• Bake, covered, in the preheated oven until bubbly, about 25 minutes.

SWEET POTATO, SPINACH & FETA TORTILLA

Steps:

• Pierce the potatoes a few times on each side. Microwave on high for 5-8 mins until soft, then set aside to cool a little.
• Heat the oil in a 20cm ovenproof frying pan and wilt the spinach for a minute or two (you might have to do this in batches). Cut each potato in half lengthways and use a spoon to scoop out the flesh, keeping it in big chunks. Whisk the eggs.
• Add the sweet potato to the pan and stir to combine with the spinach - don't break it up too much. Pour in the egg and swirl around so it fills any gaps in the pan. Scatter over the feta and cook for 4-5 mins over a low heat until the bottom and sides are set.
• Place under the grill for 1-2 mins to cook the top - poke a knife into the centre to ensure it's cooked through. Cool before slicing into wedges. Will keep chilled for up to a day.

SPINACH & SWEET POTATO TORTILLA

Steps:

• Put the spinach in a large colander and pour over a kettleful of boiling water. Drain well and, when cooled a little, squeeze dry, trying not to mush up the spinach too much.
• Heat 3 tbsp oil in a 25cm non-stick pan with a lid, then sweat the onions for 15 mins until really soft but not coloured. Add another 3 tbsp oil and add the potatoes and garlic. Mix in with the onions, season well, cover and cook over a gentle heat for another 15 mins or so until the potatoes are very tender. Stir occasionally to stop them catching.
• Whisk the eggs in a large bowl, tip in the cooked potato and onion, and mix together. Separate the spinach clumps, add to the mix and fold through, trying not to break up the potato too much.
• Add 2 tbsp more oil to the pan and pour in the sweet potato and egg mix. Cover and cook over a low-medium heat for 20 mins until the base and sides are golden brown and the centre has mostly set. Run a palette knife around the sides to stop it from sticking. 5 To turn the tortilla over, put a plate face down onto the pan, then flip it over. Slide the tortilla back into the pan and cook for a further 5-10 mins until just set and golden all over. (Don't worry if it breaks up a little on the edges as you're turning it - it will look perfect when it's cooked through and set.) Continue cooking on the other side until just set and golden all over. Again use a palette knife to release the tortilla from the sides. Allow to rest for 5 mins, then tip onto a board before cutting into wedges.

OVEN-ROASTED SWEET POTATO & COURGETTE TORTILLA

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Tip the sweet potato slices, onion and courgette into a medium non-stick baking dish (ours was 18cm x 30cm x 4cm), drizzle with the olive oil, season and mix everything together. Bake for 30 mins, tossing the veg halfway. The sweet potatoes should be tender, the courgette a little charred and the onion softened.
• Meanwhile, whisk the eggs and the crème fraîche together along with a pinch of seasoning. Pour the beaten egg mixture over the sweet potato, onion and courgette. Sprinkle over the manchego and put back in the oven for 25-30 mins until the tortilla is just set. Sprinkle over the chives and eat hot or cold with salad.

SWEET POTATO BOWLS WITH KALE AND CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• Bring potatoes and broth to a simmer in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Cover and cook until potatoes soften, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk coconut milk and curry powder in a small bowl to combine.
• Reduce heat to medium-low and stir in kale, chickpeas, and coconut milk mixture. Cover and simmer, stirring once halfway through, until potato is fully cooked but still holds its shape and kale is wilted and dark green, about 8 minutes. Stir in lime juice; season with salt and pepper.
• Divide rice among bowls. Spoon potato and kale mixture over.

KALE AND POTATO SPANISH TORTILLA

Steps:

• Peel potatoes and cut into 1/3-inch dice (2 1/4 cups). Heat oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over moderate heat until hot but not smoking, then reduce heat to moderately low and cook potatoes, onion, and 1 teaspoon salt, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
• Blanch kale while potatoes cook:
• Cook kale in a 4- to 6-quart pot of boiling salted water until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain in a colander and immediately transfer to a bowl of cold water to stop cooking. Drain again, squeezing handfuls of kale to extract excess moisture, then coarsely chop.
• Add kale to potato mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until kale is tender, about 5 minutes. Drain vegetables in colander set over a bowl, reserving drained oil, and cool 10 minutes.
• Lightly beat eggs in a large bowl, then stir in vegetables, 1 tablespoon drained oil, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• Add 1 tablespoon drained oil to skillet, then add egg mixture and cook over low heat, covered, until sides are set but center is still loose, about 12 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, 15 minutes.
• Shake skillet gently to make sure tortilla is not sticking (if it is sticking, loosen with a heatproof plastic spatula). Slide tortilla onto a large flat plate, then invert skillet over tortilla and flip it back into skillet. Round off edge of tortilla with plastic spatula and cook over low heat, covered, 10 minutes more. Slide tortilla onto a plate and serve warm, cut into wedges.
