Description

Good with an avocado and lettuce salad. Even better with a margarita.

Ingredients

  • 1 whole Sweet Potato
  • ½ teaspoons Chile Powder
  • ½ whole Lime, Juiced
  • 1 stalk Green Onion, Sliced
  • Salt And Pepper
  • 3 whole Taco-sized Corn Tortillas
  • Sour Cream, To Serve

Preparation

1. Preheat your oven to 375ºF.
2. Poke the sweet potato a couple of times with a fork. Microwave on high in 2-minute intervals. Remove once soft and set aside to cool.
3. Slice the sweet potato and scoop the “meat” into a bowl. Mash with chile powder, lime juice, green onion (save a bit for garnish), and season with salt and pepper. Divide the mash into thirds and roll up in the tortilla. Bake in a small baking dish for 20 minutes, or until tortillas are golden. Serve with the remaining green onions and a dollop of sour cream.

So, I tried your filling recipe in empanadas, and it was amazing! I added green chili, yellow onion (I didn’t have green), garlic and whole kernel frozen corn along with the lime and chili. They were a huge hit. I had lots of leftover filling to make taquitos with too. Amazing recipe, thanks.

My husband and one of our roommates loved these, I did not love them, but I did like them. I quadrupled the recipe for us, but they turned out very limey. Next time I may not increase the lime juice by so much. But a very cheap and unique way to feed many people.

Awesome recipe. Lots of room for alteration, and easily bulked up for a bigger batch.
