Method
0 of 7 done- Peel and dice the sweet potato into small cubes of about 1 cm. Set aside.
- Finely chop the onion and garlic. In a medium-sized pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion and garlic to the pan. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onions are translucent and the garlic is fragrant.
- Increase the heat slightly and add the lean beef mince to the pan. Cook for 5-6 minutes, breaking up the mince with a wooden spoon, until browned all over.
- Stir in the diced sweet potato and sprinkle with chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat everything in the spices.
- Cover the pan with a lid and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potatoes are tender and the flavors are well combined.
- Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs or a dollop of sour cream if desired.
