NZ english: Kumara
Getting European style potatoes in a supermarket here is quite hard. There is usually one kind of potatoes, and I did not manage to cook them correctly. We would call them "mehlig" probably.
And then they have loads of vegetables called "kumaras" in the supermarket, which look like red potatoes. And actually kumara is the Maori word for sweet potato.
Learned something..

So you managed to cook the Kumara? Did it taste any good?
We want details! ;)
First of all, I want to know who is "we". You and your alter ego? ;-)
Well, the first try to cook it did not really work out. It was not the kumaras fault though. I mixed up the Chilli seasoning (not too hot) with the Cayenne pepper (VERY hot). So guess how it tasted..
At least, sweet potato should be good stuff for your bones... (don't ask for reasons, it just seems to be)
you are right!
just read that sweet potatoes are rich in calcium. at least it is what they say..
