Method

1 Peel the sweet potato and use the chipper blade to turn into thick spirals.

2 Cook the spirals in salted boiling water for 2-3 minutes. Drain and put to one side.

3 Gently heat a large non-stick frying pan on the hob with a little low cal spray. Add the onions, ginger, garlic, garam masala & chopped chilli and cook for a few minutes until softened (add a splash of water to the pan if you need to loosen it up).

4 Add the sweet potato spirals and spinach to the pan and cook until the potatoes are piping hot and the spinach is wilted.

5 Remove from the heat, stir through the cream and serve immediately.
