Or you can leave the peel on too, your call.Ĭrunchy bean sprouts, thin ribbons of carrot, sliced green onion and toasted sesame seeds round out this stellar dish. The blade was meant to work with soft-skinned, symmetrically-shaped fruits and vegetables like apples, potatoes, and zucchini, but unless you can hunt down a perfectly symmetrical sweet potato you’ll be better off peeling them by hand first. While the attachment does a great job of spiralizing (as it should), I found the peeling blade to have a hard time with the uneven nature of the sweet potato. Just turn on your mixer and watch the magic happen. While the sauce is almost identical, the sweet potato noodles don’t absorb liquid in the same way the egg noodles do, so we compensated by tossing the noodles in cornstarch first, both to aid in browning and to thicken the sauce so the noodles are evenly coated in sweet, sticky goodness.īonus perk? You don’t even have to exert yourself in the process, like those hand-cranked spiralizers (I mean, we’re already eating healthy, god forbid we get any actual exercise doing it). Quick and easy becomes quick, easy AND healthy! It’s virtually identical to our popular Soy Sauce Noodle recipe just with sweet potato noodles in place of the egg noodles.

I mean, you try putting a potato through this thing and not smiling as the perfectly curly spirals cascade into your bowl, visions of crispy shoestring fries dancing in your head. It’s really just an excuse to play with your food, after all. Healthy options are a bonus, for sure, but no, the real reason I love this attachment? It’s so gosh darn fun. I’m not on a low-carb diet (sorry, not even a cool new tool is going to convince me to give up my beloved pasta). Now, let’s be clear, I’m not going paleo. I resisted for a long time, but a recent trip to KitchenAid® headquarters in Chicago changed my mind.
