A blog of a young and growing, organic, local, urban CSA farm in the making - to the delight of locavores in Dallas - folks seeking healthy, fresh, natural and local eating.
I've made then a couple of times, and quite like them. I heat oil in a pan and add a clove or 2 of garlic, and about the same amount of finely chopped ginger root. Brown that for about 30 seconds, then add the washed leaves. It only takes a minute or 2 to cook them. They are delicious, and very good for you. I love that the sweet potato plant provides 2 crops!

I pushed the next blog button and your site came up. It is good that you have the CSA thing working for you. We would like to get something like that going here but that seems to be hard to do out here. You would think that people this close to the land would not buy their "organic" food from big box type stores but not so I guess. Oh well you can't save them all.
I googled sweet potato leaf recipes and found this, amongst other things.
