Instructions

with a little exoticism

In a small bowl, prepare the spices: herb salt, kaffir lime leaf, curry powder, a pinch of freshly grated nutmeg, very finely chopped ginger, very finely chopped lovage leaf, finely chopped garlic, and mustard. Cut the spring onions into approximately 1 cm pieces. Peel the sweet potato and cut into 1 cm cubes. Prepare the spinach leaves, placing the stalks separately in a bowl as you cut them. Lightly fry the sweet potato cubes and the spring onions in a pan with olive oil, then add the spinach stalks and cook briefly. Gradually stir in the chopped spinach leaves over medium heat until they have wilted. Deglaze with a little water, add the spice mix, and drizzle with the juice of 1/4 lime. Cook gently until the sweet potato cubes are tender but not falling apart. Add the cream and garnish with chives before serving.
