Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350F. Grease a 12 hole muffin pan. Cut small rounds out of baking paper and place into the base of each hole. Cut the sweet potatoes into small cubes and steam until tender. Drain well and set aside.
Heat the oil and butter in a large skillet, and the leek, and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until very soft and lightly golden. Add the garlic and cook for an additional minute. Cool, then stir in the feta and sweet potato. Divide the mixture evenly among the muffin holes.
Whisk the eggs and cream together and season with salt and pepper. Pour the egg mixture onto each hole until three quarters filled, then press the vegetables down gently. bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden and set. Leave in the holes for 5 minutes, then ease out with a knife and cook on a wire rack before serving with arugula.
