Ingredients

FOR THE SWEET POTATO SALAD

  • 2 large sweet potatoes (peeled)
  • 1 small red onion (thinly sliced)
  • 1/3 cup dried cranberries 60 grams
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese 30 grams
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley 15 grams
  • sea salt & black pepper

FOR THE DRESSING

  • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil 45 ml
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar 15 ml
  • 1 tbsp honey 20 grams
  • 1 tbsp dijon mustard 15 grams
  • 1 clove garlic (finely grated)
  • 1 tsp dried oregano 1 gram
  • 1/4 tsp ground cumin 1 gram
  • sea salt & black pepper

Instructions

  1. Cut the sweet potatoes into small bite-size cubes, then add them into a stock pot, fill with some water, just enough to barely cover the sweet potatoes, season generously with sea salt and heat with a high heat

  2. After 15 to 20 minutes the sweet potatoes should be cooked through, just pierce them with a toothpick, you kind of want them al dente, if you overcook them they can easily break apart, remove from the heat and drain into a colander

  3. While the sweet potatoes are cooling off, make the dressing, add the olive oil into a bowl, along with the apple cider vinegar, honey, dijon mustard, garlic, oregano, cumin and season with sea salt & black pepper, whisk together until well mixed

  4. Once the sweet potatoes are cool enough to handle, about 5 to 10 minutes, transfer them into a large bowl, along with the sliced red onion, chopped parsley, dried cranberries and crumbled feta cheese, season with sea salt & black pepper, then pour in the homemade dressing and gently toss together until well mixed

  5. Serve at room temperature or chilled, it will hold for up to 3 to 4 days in the fridge, enjoy!
