Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup cooked barley
- 1 cup diced sweet potatoes
- ½ cup onion, chopped
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Sauté the sweet potatoes: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced sweet potatoes and cook for about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to become crispy and tender.
- Add the onions: Add the chopped onions into the skillet with the sweet potatoes. Continue cooking for another 3-4 minutes until the onions are golden and soft.
- Incorporate the barley and season: Stir in the cooked barley, season the mixture well with salt and pepper to taste, and cook everything together for an additional 1-2 minutes until heated through.
- Serve warm: Remove from heat and serve immediately. Optionally, top with a fried egg or sliced avocado for a complete meal.
Notes
- Add a fried egg or sliced avocado on top for extra protein and creaminess.
- Use freshly cooked barley or leftover barley from a batch to save time.
- Adjust seasoning to your taste preference with additional herbs or spices like paprika or thyme.
- For extra crispiness, cook the sweet potatoes slightly longer before adding onions.
