Hi Pauline,
Could this be done with tomato’s as husband can’t have them…maybe red wine instead?
Maybe make up that volume with part wine and part stock so they wine isn’t so overpowering perhaps?
Let me know if you try something different and how it goes 🙂
Hi Pauline, can the sweet potato be swapped for plain potatoes.
Thank you, Bonnie.
Yes you could Bonnie – just keep them small cut as they’ll need a little longer to cook to tender than the sweet potato did 🙂
