Ingredients
- 4 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 cm (3/8 in) slices
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 medium red onion, diced
- 1 cup fresh spinach, washed
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup (preferably golden syrup for its delicate flavour)

- 1/3 cup goat cheese, crumbled
Method
- Set the oven to broil and preheat.

- In an oven-proof skillet, heat the oil and sweat the onion for 1 minute.
- Add the cooked potatoes and the spinach, mixing gently for 2 – 3 minutes.
- In a small bowl, combine the mustard, maple syrup, cardamom, and salt and pepper, then add to the skillet.
- Deglaze with the water. Add the eggs and cook for 5 – 6 minutes, stirring to coat all with the eggs.
