How to make Sweet Potato Salad
Tips from the cook
- Turn the sweet potatoes only once or twice and do not add more oil: both make them softer.
- Air fryer: 200 °C for about 15 minutes.
- Add pomegranate seeds, walnuts or cucumber; more mustard gives the dressing more punch.

Meal prep and storage
For meal prep, keep the dressing and the feta apart: a dressed salad goes soggy.
