Samara’s Sweet Potatoes: A Rings Inspired Recipe

Samara's Sweet Potato Bites are a Japanese influenced appetizer inspired by the movie Rings and its predecessor Ringu! 2geekswhoeat.com #SweetPotatoeRecipes #Appetizers #SideDishes #Halloween #HorrorMovieRecipes #HorrorMovieFood #PartyIdeas Recipes based on horror movies are totally our thing. So when we heard about the release of Rings, the third movie in The Ring series, we knew a recipe was going to have to happen. The Ring was one of our favorite movies when it was released. Based on the Japanese classic Ringu, the film’s success was heavily influential in the boom of remakes in the United States.

When creating our recipe, we went through a ton of ideas. We thought about pizza bites and other circular food items. Then it dawned on us, we wanted to pay tribute to Ringu (while also acknowledging the U.S. series), the movie that started it all. More ideas came to us. Sushi bites, sashimi bites, and more. We just weren’t happy with the color palate given that the Ringu/Rings iconic symbol is a dark ring with a lighter colored ring.

While working on another post, we were cooking with purple sweet potatoes. That was our “a-ha” moment! We decided to do a recipe that wasn’t Japanese to begin with and give it some flair. Thus, Samara’s Sweet Potatoes were created! These tasty bites are addicting! We couldn’t stop eating them.Samara's Sweet Potato Bites are a Japanese influenced appetizer inspired by the movie Rings and its predecessor Ringu! 2geekswhoeat.com #SweetPotatoeRecipes #Appetizers #SideDishes #Halloween #HorrorMovieRecipes #HorrorMovieFood #PartyIdeas
