ingredients

• 1 lb sweet potato, peeled, coarsely grate, and blanched
• 1⁄2 cup chopped onion

1. Grate or spiralize your peeled sweet potato, then blanch in boiling water.
2. Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Using a spiralizer or cheese grater, create shredded sweet potato “noodles”. Set aside.
3. Bring a pot of water to a boil and blanch the sweet potato noodles until tender but still holding their shape, about 1 to 2 minutes depending on the thickness of your noodles.
4. Immediately drain your noodles and place in a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking.
5. Mix onions, garlic clove, hot sauce, cilantro, parsley, lemon juice, olive oil, pepper and salt in a bowl. Then add sweet potato to the bowl and toss to dress. Serve.
