Hi, I am growing sweet potatoes and has beautiful green leaves. Are these leaves edible like spinach?

Hello @jyotijshah   They are edible.  I grew sweet potato last year (successfully) and tried some recipes with the leaves.    Like any green leaf - treat it like spinach etc. fried or boiled or  in a gratin with pasta....    Choose the younger leaves.  They are full of nutrients.
Bon appétit!!
