There is nothing better than roasted kumara (sweet potato), roast lamb, along with golden roasted potatoes, roasted pumpkin, minted peas and meat gravy.
Forget the added sugar, cinnamon, ginger and garlic!
Actually, I could forget everything but the LAMB...I am salivating right now.

I will go for the lamb, the minted peas, the roast potatoes and Cross & Blackwell mint sauce or my own home made. Forget the gravy and the sweet potato with lamb.

My British husband introduced me to it, along with west African curries, Yorkshire pudding with roast beef, and Newcastle Brown.

I usually have them cut in matchsticks and sautéed in a little olive oil.
