  Be careful not to overcook the sweet potatoes, I boiled them for the time specified and they were a little overdone. Otherwise, a very good maincourse salad.

  Followed the suggestions above to cook the potatoes for less time, and they were easily done in that time.

  Nice for a change but I found it a bit dry (surprisingly), potatoes definately did not need more than 8 mins before griddling.

  This has become a midweek summer staple for me. Really easy, I recommend it. I usually squeeze a bit more lemon over the entire plate just before eating so it's not as dry.

  I used pre sliced chorizo, cooks quicker and tastes just as good.

  just so so good. who would think sweet potato in a salad but it works brilliantly and the dressing is to die for. We add some sun dried toms too

  Excellent. I'm not one to follow a recipe too strictly, so I had a bit too much lemon juice for the amount I made. Also, I used a fair bit more chorizo than suggested, but too much chorizo is never ever a bad thing

  Was good but I overcooked my sweet potato. Then they fell apart in the griddle pan. Probably good to have the eggs done in advance as they would be much nicer chilled. Also was much dressing left so would make more. Otherwise a good recipe.
