I've discovered a new vegetable! Or is it a fruit because it's sweet? Or it's a vegiie because it's a potato?:))
Or it's something between a veggie and a fruit?:))
Hi, batata, now I know you well;)
Potato is very popular in my country, people eat this vegetable more than any other ones. Love to potato seems to be crazy, because it's not very useful and healthy one veggie, but it's tasty and many dishes can be cooked using it, so people here like it very much.
Sweet potato - batata - can be found VERY rarely.
ordinary potato costs 0,2$, and batata - 3$, so the choice of people is logical;)
Moreover,, batata is something exotic and weird for them
When I paid for it in the supermarket, a worker fromk the shop asked me what it was, and why I bought it;))
I wanted to know what batata was, because I heard much of it.
I tasted in 3 diferent variants: baked one, fried one, and fresh one.
And...I like the fried one the most;)
Then it's really like a potato.
Baked batata is rather tasty but it's sweet! really sweet:) and it's unusual for me because I take it as a veggie;)
Fresh batata is really not bad, but rather hard to chew. But still I made a salad with it.
So my conclusion - batata is really interesting, but I didn't fall in love with it;(
but now I know what it tastes like at least;)
Do you eat batata, guys?
