Roasted Sweet Potatoes With Chile Yogurt And Mint Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss sweet potatoes with 2 Tbsp. oil on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Roast, turning halfway through, until tender, 50-60 minutes. Remove from oven; increase oven temperature to 450°F. Let sweet potatoes cool slightly, then tear into large pieces (including skin)-irregular pieces look best. Spread out on the same baking sheet and roast until browned and crisp around the edges, 20-25 minutes.
• Combine yogurt, chile, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a medium bowl; season with kosher salt. Coarsely crush sesame seeds on a cutting board with a flat-bottomed mug (or leave them whole).
• Spread chile yogurt on a platter; top with sweet potatoes. Scatter mint, sesame seeds, and sea salt over; drizzle with oil.
• Do Ahead
• Sweet potatoes can be roasted 6 hours ahead. Let sit at room temperature. Reheat in a 400°F oven just to warm through before serving. Chile yogurt can be made 1 day ahead; cover and chill.

Steps:

• Toss 1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes(cut into 1-inch pieces) with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon each chili powder and kosher salt and a few grinds of pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and bake at 450 degrees F, stirring halfway through, until crisp, 35 to 45 minutes. Puree 1/4 cup warm water, 1 minced garlic clove, the juice of 1 lime, 2/3 cup cilantro, 3 tablespoons sunflower seed butter and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt in a blender. Serve with the potatoes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Divide the potatoes and shallots between two 10-inch cast-iron skillets. Evenly drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until the potatoes are cooked through, about 25 minutes.
• For the chickpeas: Lay the chickpeas out on a flat surface and dry them as much as you can using paper towels. In a small bowl, stir together the coriander, cumin, turmeric, cinnamon, cayenne and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
• In a 10-inch cast-iron skillet, heat the oil over medium heat until shimmering. Line a large plate with paper towels. Working in two batches, add the chickpeas to the skillet so they are in a single layer and cook, stirring frequently, until golden and crispy, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Use a slotted spoon to transfer the chickpeas to the prepared plate and add the spice mixture. Toss everything together until combined; this helps to bloom the spices while the chickpeas are still warm.
• Garnish the potatoes in the skillets with the chickpeas and finish with the mint.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°. Cut each potato lengthwise into 8 wedges. (I peeled mine, but the original directions did not indicate this).
• Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Toss potatoes with oil, sugar, chili powder, salt, and ground pepper, until coated.
• Place sweet potatoes, cut sides down, on baking sheet.
• Roast potatoes until browned and tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Season with additional salt, if desired, before serving.

Steps:

• Scrub the sweet potato under running water. Dry and wrap in foil.
• Bake in a 400-degree oven for 40-45 minutes or until soft.
• In the meantime, mix the yogurt, honey and mustard together. (*mustard is optional in this step, but is best to use mustard the first time to determine if you like that flavor*).
• Set aside.
• Put the walnuts on a small baking sheet or pie plate. Toast them in the oven for 5-7 minutes near the end of the sweet potato cooking time. Shake them occasionally and watch them so they don't burn.
• To serve, cut the sweet potato in half, spoon with the yogurt sauce and sprinkle with the toasted walnuts.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees.
• In a large bowl, combine 1/4 cup oil, the honey, juice from 1 lime, a large pinch of salt and pepper to taste, and toss with potato wedges. Spread in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet, bake until tender and lightly browned in spots, 45 to 55 minutes. Sprinkle with additional salt to taste.
• Meanwhile, in a food processor, pulse to combine 1/3 cup oil, the cilantro, chiles, garlic, almonds, juice from remaining lime, vinegar and a large pinch of salt, until it forms a chunky purée. Taste and add more salt if needed.
• Spoon the sauce over the potatoes, dollop with some yogurt, drizzle with oil, and serve with any remaining yogurt on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray small baking sheet with nonstick spray. Drizzle cut sides of sweet potatoes with 1 teaspoon olive oil. Place potatoes, cut side down, on prepared sheet. Roast until tender and brown, about 30 minutes. Cool to room temperature.
• Stir curry powder in small skillet over medium-low heat until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat. Mix nonfat yogurt, tomato, fresh cilantro, and curry powder in small bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Roasted sweet potatoes and yogurt topping can be prepared 2 days ahead. Cover separately and refrigerate.) Serve sweet potatoes cold or at room temperature topped with chilled yogurt topping and chopped green onions.
