Ingredients

2 tbsp olive oil

crushed red chili pepper flakes to taste (according to how spicy you like things)

1 large sweet potato, peeled and grated (I used what is called a "garnet yam" in the US)

½ sweet onion (I used a red one), chopped fine

salt and freshly ground black pepper

3 free-range eggs

6 ounces of soft goat cheese (chevre)

generous handful fresh basil

optional -- other herbs such as thyme, tarragon, chervil, or parsley

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

Heat the oil in a skillet or other ovenproof frying pan over medium heat. Add the onion and sweet potato, and season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cook until the onion and potato are soft and somewhat browned. Turn off the heat.

Crumble the goat cheese into the sweet potato mixture.

In a small bowl, beat the eggs. Using a kitchen shears, cut small pieces of the basil (and other herbs, if used) into the egg mixture. Add crushed red pepper flakes to taste.

Add the beaten egg and herbs to the skillet and stir well, then place into the oven and bake for five minutes, or until the eggs are cooked through. (For me, because I used a room-temperature glass baking pan rather than a skillet, it took about 15 minutes.)
