Description
Having a lot of sweet potatoes in my pantry and fed up with doing the usual two to three things I do with them always. Wanted to come up with something new as I had my uncle’s family visit me after a long time. The bulb moment happened when I thought about making a pudding with the sweet potatoes. Added ingredients that I thought would be a killer combination with the sweet potatoes. Baked it. The aroma that waft out of the oven was heady. Tasted but felt the taste was not sublime for a new attempt. So to add more glamour to the pudding came up with a topping idea that would go well with the pudding’s taste. Mixed the topping ingredients together. Tasted and it was spot on genius invention that brought a melange of flavor’s in sorting out the pudding from nice to delicious. Served the pudding after a heavy meal. To my surprise, this pudding was a stunner with every one giving a thumbs up and wanting a second helping as well. My quest to finish off the sweet potatoes was done in style on a satisfying note. I did a big fat cheers to myself with a smile .
