A Colorful Vegetables For Breakfast

Start with something colorful, and it's good to start with your breakfast.

When cooking in the kitchen, the thing that I have to be fully aware of is the colorful variations of the ingredients that I will cook and serve on the dining table. Especially about vegetables.

With various variations of vegetable colors, it adds to the taste of our food with an attractive appearance. In addition, we also make different variations, not the same every day. And it's good to start with different sources of nutrition from various types of ingredients.

I think I haven't served sweet potatoes as my source of carbohydrates for a long time. Indeed, I am very grateful, by living in Indonesia, I have many choices. I can have many variations of food sources, especially for carbohydrates.

For breakfast, I usually switch to something lighter than rice. Often, potatoes, sweet potatoes, pumpkin, banana, or corn. So, for today, I will show you how I prepare breakfast in my kitchen. Also, with some art that I make on a serving plate to enhance the taste.

Well, you can replace sweet potatoes with potatoes. Here, I use 500 grams of sweet potatoes which can also be served as lunch or snacks if there are leftovers from breakfast that have been served.

Also, of course, you can replace the vegetables in my recipe with other vegetables that you can get in your respective areas. Enjoy my colorful breakfast recipe this time.

If you don't have mung bean sprouts like the ones I use in this recipe, then you can replace them with microgreens which also have lots of nutrients. It's just that, microgreens are added at the final serving, not cooked together with other vegetables so that it doesn't get damaged in texture and nutrition.

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS

PREPARE SWEET POTATOES

As I often say, if you serve a menu with something baked, you can start working on the baked ingredients. Then, in this recipe, you can start by preparing the sweet potatoes. Clean the sweet potatoes with dishwashing foam and we don't need to peel them.

Skewer the sweet potatoes using a fork, then toast with some oil and salt evenly.



BAKE SWEET POTATOES

Here, I use an air fryer. Then, I bake the sweet potatoes for 25 minutes per side. Adjust the baking time according to your baking equipment.



STIR-FRY SEASONING

Add all vegetables, and keep stirring for a while. Then, add a little water so they don't burn. Cook for about 5 minutes, then remove and serve.

Remove the baked sweet potatoes from the grill. When ready to serve on a serving plate, cut a baked sweet potato using a knife.

Then, serve stir-fried veggies on top of the baked sweet potato. Also, sprinkle with sesame seeds. Here, I also use spicy chili sauces which I also use for my plating art show. I love it!

Well, I do eat, but very little. But I love tabbouleh. A Lavantina salad. I think that's how I prefer to eat vegetables. With a tabbouleh, Arabic bread and a good cream to go with it. That's it! Your mouth watered🤣 I'm hungry 🤣

Here, we get used to add kaffir lime leaves, or bay leaves. I think, similar with the using of tyhme or rosemary herbs :)

Of course I like your amazing recipes, but most of all I am amazed by the presentation and the diligence that you spend on describing all the smallest details.
Even if someone can't cook at all, after seeing your photos, they will definitely want to try something of this themselves for sure!
