I will never forget the look on his face when I caught him “cleaning the edges” around the last piece left on the tray (actually he was suppose to do the dishes in the kitchen but instead he helped himself to thirds – or was it even\u00a0 fourths? – straight out of the baking dish). I haven’t laughed this hard in a\u00a0 long time.
\nBut to be fair, he did the dishes after all. Bless him!<\/p>\n

Well, I am not going to waste any more words. Let the food do the talking. But one last thing: BE WARNED! This dish is highly addictive. You might find your partner morphing into Gollum, holding on tight to the baking dish, snarling “My precious…”<\/p>\n

And here we go…<\/p>\n

INGREDIENTS:<\/strong> (serves 2)
\n2 – 3 big sweet potatoes
\n200 g fresh spinach (washed)
\n6 slices of goat cheese roll (with rind)
\n200 gr cr\u00e8me fraiche
\n80 ml milk
\n1 garlic clove (pressed)
\n2 cm ginger (minced or grated)
\nchili flakes or fresh chilli
\nsalt & pepper
\nfresh thyme<\/p>\n

METHOD:<\/strong>
\nPreheat the oven to 160\u00b0C
\nPeel the sweet potatoes and cut them in slices (not too thin, not too thick – approx. 0,5 cm)
\nCook them in slightly salted water for about 5 – 6 minutes & drain the sweet potatoes
\nButter or lightly oil a baking dish
\nLayer the sweet potato slices evenly in the baking dish and season to taste
\nArrange the fresh spinach on top of the sweet potato slices
\nMix cr\u00e8me fraiche with milk, add the grated ginger, chilli flakes (or chopped fresh chilli) and minced garlic and stir with a fork or whisk (don’t blend the mix! It is nicer to have little chunks of ginger and garlic to chew on)
\nSeason to taste and pour over the veggies
\nTop with slices of goat cheese roll
\nPlace fresh thyme on each piece of cheese
\nPut the gratin in the oven and bake for 25 – 30 minutes
\nTo make the cheese extra crisp grill the gratin for another 2 – 3 minutes but make sure not to burn the cheese! Keep a good eye on it \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Enjoy!<\/p>\n

Have a blonDISHious day,
