This vibrant spicy sweet potato spread is a versatile addition to any mezze platter or snack selection. By gently microwaving the potatoes, you achieve a soft, plush texture that blends beautifully with the zesty lime juice and aromatic garlic. The combination of cayenne pepper and hot sauce provides a subtle, warming heat that perfectly balances the natural sweetness of the root vegetables, creating a sophisticated depth of flavour.
As a naturally dairy-free condiment, this spread is an excellent healthy alternative to traditional creamy dips. It works wonderfully as a savoury sandwich filler, a base for grilled vegetables, or simply served alongside toasted pitta bread and crunchy crudités. It is a quick and simple way to add a punch of flavour to your weekday lunches or casual weekend entertaining.

Ingredients for Spicy Sweet Potato Spread
2 or 3 small to medium sweet potatoes (about 350g )
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon hot red pepper sauce
1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoons cayenne pepper
60ml juice from 2 limes
160ml olive oil
80ml canned chicken broth
How to make Spicy Sweet Potato Spread
Cook the potatoes in the microwave on high power until soft, 10 to 12 minutes. Holding potatoes in an oven mitt, peel (or peel when cool enough to handle).
Process the potatoes, garlic, pepper sauce, salt, cayenne, and lime juice in the workbowl of the food processor fitted with the metal blade until puréed. With the machine running, gradually add oil through the feeder tube. Continue to process, adding broth through the feeder tube until the mixture is light and silky. Transfer to a serving bowl.
