sweet potato leaves
Tropical vine foliage
Sweet potato leaves are the edible greens of the sweet potato plant, widely consumed in African, Asian, and Pacific cuisines.
The heart-shaped leaves have a mild, slightly peppery flavor and are prepared like spinach—sautéed, added to soups, or served as a side dish: We stir-fried the sweet potato leaves with garlic.
