Sweet potato, eggs and spinach breakfast

Sauté leeks in olive oil.  Careful to soften them without browning them. This takes a minute. Be patient.

Add a small serving of sliced, raw sweet potato (can prepare sweet potato in advance to save time).  Add a small serving of butter if you're feeling naughty.  Let leeks and sweet potato soften in the pan.  Sprinkle with seasonings (salt, pepper, etc). 

Add an egg and cook covered on low. Turn if you must, otherwise cook until almost done. 

Finally add a generous handful of fresh leaves of spinach and wilt while the egg finishes.  Probably a good idea to cover the pan while everything cooks.

When finished serve all together!

Directions

Watch how to make this recipe.

In a mixing bowl, combine the cilantro, jalapeno, ginger, garlic, lime juice, soy sauce, sugar, salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Stir the ingredients together until well incorporated.

Place a skillet over medium-high heat and coat with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season the tuna generously with salt and pepper. Lay the tuna in the hot oil and sear for 1 minute on each side to form a slight crust. Pour 1/2 of the cilantro mixture into the pan to coat the fish. Serve the seared tuna with the sliced avocado and the remaining cilantro sauce drizzled over the whole plate.
