Sweet Potato Chips with Lime Cream
Sweet potato chips are moreish, and the lime cream in this recipe takes them to another level of deliciousness. While I try to stay mostly dairy free when on a gut cleanse, a small amount of goat’s or sheep’s yoghurt gives lots of nourishment without the tummy compromise. This is because goat’s and sheep’s milk have smaller fat globules than cow’s milk, and a higher proportion of medium-chain fatty acids, making them easier to digest. While coriander o!ers anti-fungal properties, you can swap it for rosemary if you like, to give this recipe an Italian twist and to reap some added anti-inflammatory benefits.

The Beauty Chef's tips
LOW-FODMAP OPTION! Swap the sweet potato for carrots. Cook for an extra 10 minutes, or until tender. Reduce the sheep’s or goat’s yoghurt to 125 g (4! oz/! cup) or swap for coconut yoghurt. Carrots are a good source of the prebiotic arabinogalactan, shown to increase the production of short-chain fatty acids that help the body fight inflammation.
