Unlike the regular potato, the sweet potato is said to be kind to the diabetic community. It has been my experience too - it does not spike my BG to any dangerous levels when consumed in reasonable quantities. We quite frequently make curries with it and the one that I especially like is the curry with both sweet potato and butternet squash. Once in a while, we also make sweet potato chips. Today my wife made some. Here is a picture. I don't eat chips with a spoon; the teaspoon is shown to give you an idea of the size of the plate and through it the quantity of chips that I consume once in a while with my evening tea. Can anybody "guesstimate" the amount of carbs in the quantity of sweet potato chips shown in the picture? This quantity hardly raises my BG.
My wife cut the raw sweet potatoes into chips of the size shown in the picture. She then fried it in coconut oil. During frying she sprinkled a few drops of salt water (water with a little table salt dissolved in it) to bring out the flavour of the sweet potato. This is all there is to the recipe of sweet potato chips. Hope you make and enjoy sweet potato chips once in a while.
