Sweet Potato Chapathi

Sweet potatoes are loaded with the natural fiber and antioxidants which give the super power to this vegetable even though it is high in carbs. The goodness in it outweighs that fact.

Do you know that there are 2 varieties of sweet potato and actually the white flesh sweet potatoes are yam family? I came to know about this like couole of years ago.

Today i have used the orange flesh sweet potatoes which gives the finished product a beautiful colour.
