A few pics followed by the recipe
Chop the onions into small cubes and cook them gently in a large fry pan with a drizzle of oil.
Grate the potatoes and carrots and chop the cauliflower and broccoli into small pieces. Give the grated potatoes a bit of a squeeze to get rid of excess moisture.
Place all these vegetables into the fry pan with the onions, and on a gentle heat let them cook together for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly so they won't burn. Add a little salt (about a teaspoon). Set aside.
In a bowl mix together 1 cup of milk and 1 cup of self-raising flour. Mix until smooth and then add the eggs and 1 teaspoon of salt and beat in.
Grate the cheese and cut up the ham into small pieces and gently mix into the batter mix.
Now add the mashed sweet potato and mix in.
Using a large 11inch well greased quiche pan, place the cooked veggies from the fry pan onto the bottom then pour the batter over the top.
Cook in a pre-heated oven at 375 f or 190 c for 30 minutes.
It will puff up and turn golden brown while cooking. If you serve immediately it will still be puffy, but if you wish to serve it cold it will still look and taste fabulous but will have lost its puffiness.
