Actually, I enjoy making sweet potato and eggplant crisps for my kids.


What I usually do:

1. thinly slice sweet potato and eggplant
2. place baking paper on baking tray
3. spread sweet potato and eggplant slices on baking tray
4. drizzle with EVOO (extra virgin olive oil)
5. sprinkle sea salt and a squeeze of lime (or lemon)
6. add finely chopped oregano or rosemary (or any other herbs of your choice) - this step is optional. If lazy to finely chop the herbs, then just place a sprig of the herb over the sweet potato and eggplant
7. put in oven and bake for about 20-30 mins until crisp


End result - it looks like Lays potato crisps. Tastes yummy and healthy. :lol:


Best of all, no slimy, gooey taste!! :roll:

Hi Autumnbronze
Don't advise keeping. Best eaten on the spot for lunch/dinner. Also, I don't think it can be stored in an airtight container.

Anyway...me kids luuuvv it so much, there's always no left-overs!! :drool:

i think it's really important to get kids to start eating vegetables. ONce they grow up, and do not have the habit of eating veg, they will never start :roll:

Most welcome. All good things must share :lol:

My DS is another one of those kids who like veg and fish. His fav are broccoli and salmon. Or fish soup with noodles and pak choy.


I didn’t ‘train’ him. We just let him sample whatever we are eating (with the exception of spicy food). He developed his own likes and dislikes.

EUREKA :celebrate:

Schweppesie,

:thankyou: for the recipe ....

I tried it today. It was GRRRRRRREAT.

I used sweet potatoes from Indo, the ones selling at NTUC are nice and sweet. I cut them into really really thin slices and used olive oil and the no-salt garlic and herbs spice from MaCormicks :drool: :drool:

The crispiness was just nice, only drawback was it was a tad too oily for the 1st batch. The 2nd batch was better.

And yes, I am quite happy having them as munchy snacks for movie nites.

Ahhhhh yes, before I forget ....


:rahrah: HAPPY ANNIVERSARY :rahrah: , albeit a little belated *sheepish*

Hey all, recipe is worth trying .... :love:
