You can certainly a food processor but it is key to grate the sweet potatoes really fine. You don’t want to boil or bake the sweet potatoes because it changes the texture of the dish. If you have the time, this dish is certainly one that you should have on your holiday dessert table.Enjoy it as a dessert but you can also make it as a side dish.

2 cups grated sweet potato, about 2 to 3 medium size potatoes
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

How to Cook a Fried Egg, Spanish-Style

To prepare a Spanish fried egg, pour about 1/4-inch of olive oil into a small, heavy skillet. Heat it over medium-high heat until it’s extremely hot (but not smoking). Crack 1 egg into a ramekin or mug. When the oil is hot, carefully slip the egg in and reduce the heat to medium-low. Then spoon some of the oil over the egg as it cooks. Remove the egg with a slotted spoon after no more than 1 1/2 minutes (when the white puffs and becomes crispy and golden-brown around the edges, and when the yolk still jiggles). Serve sprinkled with a bit of flaky salt and freshly ground black pepper
