Sweet Potato Crisps

These yummy treats are great for eating alone at a barbecue or serving on top of grilled fish

with a creamy mayonnaise.

1 large sweet potato

oil for deep frying

sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Peel the sweet potato and cut into large pieces just small enough to fit into the feed shoot.

The smaller the sweet potato is cut, the shorter the shavings with be. Using the processing

bowl fitted with the shaving disk, slice the sweet potato using the food pusher. Place the

sweet potato shavings onto absorbent paper and gently press out any excess liquid.

Heat oil in a deep fryer or wok and cook the sweet potato in batches until crisp (this will

not take very long). Remove from oil quickly and drain on absorbent paper. Season with

salt and pepper.

Whole Egg Mayonnaise

2 eggs

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

pinch sea salt

2 cups vegetable or light olive oil

Using the processing bowl fitted with the universal 's' blade, place eggs, juice, mustard

and salt in the processing bowl and process for 5 seconds or until combined. With the

motor still running remove the food pusher and start to pour in the oil in a slow, thin

stream until the mixture is creamy and all the oil has been added. Store in the refriger-

ator in an airtight container for 2 weeks.
