Instructions

1. Heat 1 cup (240 ml) olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.
2. Cut the sweet potatoes into rounds 1/4 inch (0.625 cm) thick. Rinse them in cold water for about 1 minute, until the water runs clear, then pat them completely dry on a dish towel.
3. Once the oil is hot, add the sweet potato slices and toss to coat in oil. Stir every 2 to 3 minutes so they brown evenly.
4. Meanwhile, pound 2 roughly chopped garlic cloves in a mortar with the parsley and a pinch of salt until well mashed. Stir in 2 tbsp (30 ml) olive oil.
5. Fry the sweet potatoes for 20 to 25 minutes, until lightly golden and cooked through (a toothpick should pierce them easily). Remove them from the pan and set aside.
6. Strain the oil from the pan through a fine sieve into a heatproof bowl, so it can be reused in future recipes.
7. Return the pan to medium heat and add 2 tbsp (30 ml) of the strained oil. Add the 6 roughly chopped garlic cloves and stir constantly.
8. After 1 to 2 minutes, when the garlic is lightly sautéed, return the sweet potatoes to the pan, season with salt and pepper, and mix gently.
9. Transfer to a large serving dish and spoon the garlic and parsley sauce over the top.
