Spicy Sweet Potatoes
Actually, this isn't a recipe, it's a story.
A few months ago the wife was away and I was on my own for dinner, and without much time to cook. I put a sweet potato in the oven, plated it when it was done, split it open, a little fake butter and a healthy dose of cinnamon. Yum. I was ready to eat.
One of the features of living with a spouse in the sauce business is that she often has samples in the kitchen. And a large, clear container of a powdered brown substance is not necessarily cinnamon.
In this case, it was habanero powder. With a healthy dose.
Really. A lot of it.
I like my food very spicy, so it wasn't too hot to eat, but what a surprise!
