This warm salad is very easy to make and requires only a few ingredients. It is made with tender steamed sweet potatoes that are tossed in a flavorful chermoula - the famous Moroccan marinade made out of garlic, spices, lemons and fresh herbs. You can also use this chermoula to flavor other steamed vegetables including potatoes, zucchini, carrots, cauliflower, etc...
