Sweet potato

Preheat the oven to 60 °C, warm a baking tray and plates. Heat a dash of oil in a non-stick frying pan (approx. 20 cm in diameter). Place ¼ of the sweet potato slices on the base of the pan, cook over a medium heat for about 5 mins. until soft.

Top with ¼ of the cheese, cover and continue to cook until the cheese has melted. Keep the omelette warm. Repeat with the remaining sweet potatoes and egg mixture.
