This purple-skinned, white-fleshed gem is starchy, less sugary, and packs a delicious, chestnut-like flavor.🍠
4 ways to cook with it this week:
1️⃣ Cuban Fufu de Boniato: Boiled and mashed with a garlicky, lime-infused olive oil mojo, then topped with crispy chicharrones.
2️⃣ Ultra-Crispy Fries: Soak, slice, and air-fry. Because of its high starch content, boniato gets that perfect golden crunch.
3️⃣ Chorizo Breakfast Hash: Diced and skillet-fried with spicy Spanish chorizo, onions, and bell peppers. Top it with a fried egg!
4️⃣ Coconut Ginger Puree: Steamed and blended smooth with rich coconut milk, fresh ginger, and lemongrass for an elegant, tropical side.
Drop a 🍠 in the comments if you’ve tried boniato before!
