Orange kumara (Beauregard) 1kg

Kumara has heaps of Vitamin C along with some Vitamin E and B6, and is a good source of potassium, iron and calcium. There’s plenty of soluble fibre, too, mostly in the skin. The flesh of orange-skinned kumara is rich in B-carotene, and the skin contains some, too, but in a lesser degree. Purple and red varieties also contain antioxidants in their flesh but have a higher concentration in their skins. Best to eat some of all three colours!
