This recipe is going to be divided into two parts as it is a combination of two dishes.
The first is a refreshing and creamy mashed sweet potato and carrots. It is very simple to make and can make a perfect side dish for your holiday meal on itself.
The second part will be a recipe for simple, tasty crepes and the salty feta sauce that make, together with the mashed potatoes, the beautiful crepes in the picture.
The only reason I labeled the recipe as medium difficulty is because the full recipe is made out of 3 different steps, each step is very very simple by itself.
The sweetness of the mashed potatoes along with the saltiness of the feta cheese and parsley sauce makes it a really clever dish in my opinion.

Let's start:
Mashed sweet potatoes:
Prep time: 10 min.
|
Cooking time: 35 min.
|
Difficulty: simple
|
Servings: 10 ppl.
|

Instructions:
- Fill up the pot with water, and boil.
- Cut each peeled sweet potato into three pieces and add to the water. Cut the peeled carrots into 4 pieces and add to the water, add the peeled garlic and onions.
- Cook the vegetables for 30 minutes, check with a fork the softness of each vegetable. Usually all vegetables are going to be soft enough at this point. Remove the soft vegetables and drain them using the sieve.
- If there is a vegetable that is still hard, keep cooking it for a couple of more minutes, until softens.
- In a mixing bowl, place all the drained vegetables, add the spices and the olive oil and wine (if you want).
- Blend well with a hand blender or in a food processor.
- Taste and fix seasonings.
- Garnish with fresh parsley.
- Enjoy!
