BACON WRAPPED SWEET PATATO
Very easy to make bacon-wrapped sweet potato braai snack/starter.
- 2 medium sweet potatoes
- 500 g streaky bacon
- olive oil
- spices: salt, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper
- honey
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into roughly 3 cm x 3 cm cubes.
Place the cubes on some heavy duty foil, coat them in olive oil and then spice using the paprika, cayenne and salt according to taste.
Close the foil to form a “parcel” and place on a high heat (or event directly in the coals).
Remove the sweet potatoes from the fire once they have softened, but are still firm.
Cut bacon strips in half. Using 1 half, wrap a sweet potato cube and secure with a toothpick.
Place the wrapped cubes directly onto the grid and braai until bacon is crispy.
Remove from the fire, drizzle with honey and then serve to your guests so that they can start praising you.

Ek’t vanaand vir ons Rina se weergawe van wrapped sweet potato gemaak.
Ek het die patat vooraf gekook tot gaar, maar ferm en toe die patatblokkies gedoop in smoked paprika en cayenne peper.
Ek’t dit toe toegedraai met repiespek en op ‘n sosatie stokkie geryg en op die kole gebraai tot lekker krakerig en terselfdertyd gesmeer met sweet chillie sous.
En dit was djeeerrlik!!!!
