Black Pepper Garlic Roasted Sweet Potatoes Recipes

GARLIC-ROASTED SWEET POTATOES

• In a small baking dish, combine the sweet potatoes and garlic. Drizzle with oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake, uncovered, at 425° for 25-30 minutes or until tender, stirring every 10 minutes.

ROASTED SWEET POTATOES WITH SMOKED PAPRIKA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Combine the sweet potatoes, onion and garlic in a large bowl, and drizzle the olive oil over it, then toss to coat. Sprinkle the salt, pepper and smoked paprika over the potatoes, and toss again to coat. Tip the potatoes onto a sheet pan or into a shallow casserole, then cover it with foil.
• Roast the potatoes in the oven, tossing occasionally, until they are soft at the center and beginning to crisp at the edges, approximately 30 to 40 minutes. Serve hot, drizzled with burned-scallion crema if you like.

BLACK PEPPER & GARLIC ROASTED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Mix all the ingredients, except the coriander leaves, together in a large bowl with 1 tsp salt and 2 tsp black pepper.
• Arrange the potatoes, skin-side down, on two baking trays or one large, lined with baking parchment if they're not non-stick, and bake for 30-40 mins until soft inside and crisp on the outside. Season and serve scattered with the coriander leaves.

SWEET POTATOES ROASTED WITH GARLIC AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
• Put the chopped garlic in 1 TBS of the olive oil with half of the rosemary on the side to use later.
• Toss the potato pieces with olive oil, half of the rosemary, and salt and pepper.
• Bake for 20 minutes, tossing occasionally in order to crisp the outsides.
• Toss with the garlic and remaining rosemary and continue to bake until the potatoes are soft on the inside, about 15 minutes more.

MASHED SWEET POTATOES WITH ROASTED GARLIC

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Turn the garlic head on its side and carefully cut off the very top end to expose the cloves. (Discard the top.) Place the head of garlic on a sheet of foil, cut side up, and drizzle with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Wrap tightly and place on a sheet pan. Wrap each sweet potato individually in foil and place on the pan alongside the garlic.
• Bake until the sweet potatoes are tender and the garlic is soft, fragrant and slightly caramelized, about 1 hour. Set aside, still wrapped, to cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, heat the cream and butter in the microwave in 30-second intervals, checking after each, until the butter is melted, about 1 minute. (Alternatively, you can heat the cream and butter in a small saucepan over medium until the butter is melted.)
• Unwrap the sweet potatoes and peel them, discarding the skin and adding the flesh to a large bowl. Squeeze the garlic head, cut side down, into the bowl to release the roasted cloves. Pour in the hot cream and butter. Using a whisk or fork, break up the potatoes and garlic and vigorously stir until smooth and fluffy, at least 30 seconds. Taste for seasoning, adjusting with salt and pepper as needed. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve warm. (To make ahead, transfer to a buttered casserole dish or cake pan, cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours, until ready to eat. Bake in a 350-degree oven or microwave until heated through, about 15 minutes. On Thanksgiving, you should reheat this when the turkey is out of the oven and resting.)
