SWEET POTATO SALAD (SLATIT BATATA HELWA)



Sweet Potato Salad (Slatit batata helwa) image

This Moroccan salad is both sweet and spicy. I like the olives and capers in it, but you could just as easily leave them out. I also wonder if it would be good with a handful of raisins, instead of the olives?
