INGREDIENTS:
2 big sweet potatoes, sliced widthwise into 1/2 inch pieces
5 large cloves elephant garlic, skins on
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. black pepper
2 tbsp. whipping cream
1 oz. Parmesan cheese, crumbled
4 large egg yolks, beaten
4 large egg whites, beaten until stiff
1/2 oz. margarine, melted
1 tbsp. all-purpose flour, sifted
1/2 cup whole milk
METHOD:
Preheat oven to 350 F (180 C). Put sweet potatoes on a cookie sheet and bake for 45 minutes until cooked. Add garlic cloves about 10 minutes before cooking time is complete.
Meanwhile, add all-purpose flour to the margarine until a thick paste has been formed. Slowly add the milk and cream until the paste becomes thinner and thinner, but not lumpy. A runny sauce should be formed. Season with salt and black pepper and slowly heat until thickened, stirring continuously. Set aside until needed.
Using a food processor, combine sweet potatoes and garlic. Add salt, black pepper, half of the Parmesan cheese and egg yolks. Beat until smooth.
Fold in the egg whites until smooth. Pour sweet potato mixture into a greased soufflé dish. Crumble over remaining Parmesan cheese. Bake for 20 minutes until golden on top. Serve hot with a selection of choice vegetables for a family reunion or party with friends.
