Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ pounds sweet potato, peeled, shredded

Instructions
 

  • Mix sweet potatoes and onions in a large bowl. Heat 2 teaspoons olive oil over medium-low to medium heat in a large skillet. Add about half of the sweet potatoes and onions, and stir to coat. Press with a spatula to flatten. Cook about 7-8 minutes; do not stir.
  • Flip, and cook another 3-5 minutes. Remove from skillet, and set aside. Repeat to cook remaining vegetables. When done, combine the two batches in the skillet. Cook another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • To shred potatoes, it's best to use a food processor (shredding disc attachment), although you can do it by hand.
  • Use a combination of sweet potatoes and Yukon Gold or russet potatoes.
  • Makes a great breakfast dish.
