Sweet Potato Leaves with Sesame Dressing
2-4 servings as a side

~~~ Ingredients ~~~
200g of sweet potato leaves
Soy sauce for sprinkling

DRESSING
½ cup white or black sesame seeds
1½ tsps castor sugar
1 tbls sake
1½ tbls dashi liquid (make to packet directions)
2 tsps tamari

~~~ Directions ~~~
Bring a saucepan of water to the boil, add the sweet potato leaves and cook for 1 minute.  Drain and plunge into iced water to halt the cooking process, then drain well. Sprinkle with a little soy sauce and allow to cool then cut into 3 cm lengths.

To make the dressing, dry fry the sesame seeds over medium heat, stirring regularly for about 5 minutes or until lightly golden. Immediately place the seeds into a mortar and grind until very finely crushed. Gradually incorporate the sugar, sake, dashi and tamari until it forms a smooth paste.

Just before serving toss the sweet potato leaves and dressing together and serve with rice and grilled salmon.
