Cover with a plate and microwave until slightly tender, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain sweet potato, and transfer to a plate. Pat sweet potato dry, and lightly coat with cooking spray.
• Heat a 9-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Add Canadian bacon and 1 tablespoon oil; cook, stirring often, until bacon is lightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain bacon on paper towels, reserving drippings in skillet. Add shallots and sweet potato to skillet; cook, stirring often, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
• Whisk together eggs, Gruyère, sage, pepper, and salt in a bowl. Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to sweet potato mixture in skillet; pour egg mixture into skillet.

LIGHT SWEET POTATO FRITTATA

Steps:

• First in a saute pan, heat 1 tsp of vegetable oil (or other oil) and add in the onion, garlic cloves and chilli. Cook until the onion becomes soft. Once soft add the curry powder and pepper.Combine all ingredients, until all onion is covered in the spices. Once covered remove from the pan and set aside.
• Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips. In the same pan place the sweet potato slices and fill the pan with just boiled water until covered. Cook on a medium heat. Once boiling reduce to a simmer. Now add the chicken breasts into the simmer water with the potatoes. Cook until the potatoes are tender but still with some bite when pricked with a sharp knife. Once the chicken is almost cooked, remove and set aside with the onions.
• Drain the water from the pan. On a low heat slowly heat the sweet potatoes evaporating any left over water. Add the onion and chicken mix back into the pan and heat through. Turn the heat off to prepare the eggs.
• In a processor, whisk up the egg white until fluffy. Add the whites into the chicken mix in the pan. Mix together, and on a low heat allow to cook for 4 minutes. After 4 minutes place into a preheated oven of 150C for 10-12minutes until firm. Remove and allow to cool slightly before turning out on to a plate.
• Serve either cold or warm with light mayonnaise and fresh salad leaves

Steps:

• Preheat fan forced oven to 180c (356f).
• Whisk eggs with water and herbs; season with pepper and salt; set aside.
• Layer sweet potato, red onion and leeks in a pyrex dish or similar (I find that a small square casserole dish works best) and either microwave or heat in oven until sweet potato is soft.

• Bake until set (should be around 10-15 mins).

FRITTATA OF SWEET POTATOES, SWISS CHARD, PEPPERS AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Char the peppers on an open fire or under the broiler. Steam them for five minutes in a bag or covered bowl, and peel. Seed them, then cut into 1/4-inch strips.
• Prepare Swiss Chard: Both the leaves and the stems of Swiss chard are edible. When preparing the chard for this recipe, remove the stems from the leaves. Slice the stems into ¼-inch pieces and blanch separately from the leaves. The leaves may be cut into spoon-size pieces.
• Bake potatoes in the oven until they are tender, 20 to 30 minutes. Allow them to cool at room temperature. When the potatoes have cooled, peel them and cut into 1/4-inch slices.
• Beat eggs and egg whites and season with salt and black pepper.
• Heat half the oil in a large, 10-inch sauté pan. Add the onions and sauté until brown. Season onions with salt and pepper and allow them to cool.
• Return sauté pan to stove on medium heat, and add the remaining olive oil. Add a layer of potatoes, followed by 1/3 of the onions, peppers, prepared Swiss chard and parsley.
• Pour a third of the egg mixture over the vegetables. Repeat until all of the ingredients are in the pan. You may need to push the layers of the frittata down gently so that all of the ingredients are covered by the egg mixture.
• Place the pan in a 350°F oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until the eggs are all set and the top is golden brown.
• Slide onto a warm serving platter and let cool for five minutes. Slice and serve.
• Prep includes prep and stove top time. Cooking time is baking time.
