I went to JustLife to shop for some vegetables. Then I came across this purple colour sweet potato leaves.The colour attracts me. It was the first time i saw this and eaten them. It tastes no difference from the green ones. Do you know that sweet potato leaves and sweet potato are poor people's food long time ago. Mainly due to the cheap price. However, they are not cheap now especially sweet potato as it has great health benefits!It's like a wonder foods!
The good: This food is low in Saturated Fat, and very low in Cholesterol. It is also a good source of Vitamin E (Alpha Tocopherol), Niacin and Phosphorus, and a very good source of Dietary Fiber, Vitamin A, Vitamin K, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Vitamin B6, Folate, Magnesium, Potassium and Manganese.
The bad: This food is very high in Sodium, and a large portion of the calories in this food come from sugars.
It's very simple to cook sweet potato leaves. People in Malaysia usually stir fried these with sambal belacan. However, i don't fancy belacan due to health reason.
Let me share my way of cooking!
