Spiced sweet potato and goat cheese egg skillet

Indulge in a delightful breakfast or brunch with this Spiced Sweet Potato and Goat Cheese Egg Skillet. This flavorful dish combines the natural sweetness of sweet potatoes with the creamy richness of goat cheese, all brought together with aromatic spices for a satisfying meal.

Ingredients:

2 oz goat cheese
54g
2 eggs
100g
3 cups sweet potatos
400g
2 dash salt
0.80g
1 cup water
240g
1 tsp turmeric powder
2.20g
1 tbsp paprika
7g
1 onion
70g
1 tsp olive oil
4.50g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Peel and cube the sweet potatoes into bite-sized pieces.
- Chop the onion finely.
- Crumble the goat cheese and set aside.
2. Cook the Sweet Potatoes:
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion and sauté until it becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the cubed sweet potatoes to the skillet and stir to combine with the onions.
3. Season and Simmer:
- Sprinkle the turmeric powder, paprika, and a dash of salt over the sweet potatoes and onions.
- Pour 1 cup of water into the skillet, stir, and cover with a lid.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer until the sweet potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and to ensure even cooking.
4. Cook the Eggs:
- Once the sweet potatoes are tender and the water has mostly evaporated, create two small wells in the sweet potato mixture with a spoon.
- Crack an egg into each well.
- Cover the skillet with the lid again and cook until the eggs are set to your preference, about 5-7 minutes for medium-set yolks.
5. Final Touches:
- Remove the skillet from the heat.
- Sprinkle the crumbled goat cheese evenly over the top.
- Add an additional dash of salt if desired.
6. Serve:
- Serve the spiced sweet potato and goat cheese egg skillet hot. It makes a perfect main dish for breakfast, brunch, or even a light dinner.

Tips:

- Ensure that the sweet potatoes are diced uniformly for even cooking.

- Feel free to add extra vegetables like bell peppers or spinach for added nutrition.

- Use a non-stick skillet to prevent the eggs from sticking and to make the cooking process easier.

- Sprinkle some fresh herbs such as parsley or chives on top before serving for added freshness.

- For a spicier version, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.

This Spiced Sweet Potato and Goat Cheese Egg Skillet is a perfect blend of flavors and textures that makes for a wholesome and delicious start to your day. Enjoy this satisfying dish as is, or pair it with a fresh salad for a complete meal.
