Directions

In a medium stockpot, cover the cubed sweet potatoes with water and bring to a boil. Cook just until tender, about 5 minutes of boiling. Drain. See Ann’s Tips for a microwave method.
Meanwhile, in a wide skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the onions have softened and caramelized. Remove the onions from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the drained sweet potatoes, salt, pepper, and paprika or rosemary and cook without stirring for 5 minutes. When browned, turn the potatoes and cook for another 5 minutes or until well browned.
Add the caramelized onion, stir and cook for another 3 minutes. Serve with Scrambled Eggs.

Chef Tips

If you are as big a fan of sweet potatoes as I am, boil or bake up two or three potatoes and keep them in the fridge or freezer to transform into dishes like this one.
