Pomegranate Sweet Potatoes Recipes

SLOW-COOKER SWEET POTATOES WITH WALNUTS AND POMEGRANATE

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven, and preheat to 350 degrees F. Stir together the sugar, butter, cinnamon, cumin and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl.
• Toss the sweet potatoes with the cornstarch in a large mixing bowl. Transfer half the sweet potatoes to a 6-quart slow cooker. Spoon half the sugar-butter mixture on top. Add the remaining potatoes and sugar-butter mixture. Cook, covered, on low until the sweet potatoes are tender but not mushy, about 4 hours.
• Meanwhile, spread the walnuts out on a baking sheet, and bake until very golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool, then roughly chop.
• When the sweet potatoes are tender, gently stir in the lemon juice. Transfer the potatoes to a shallow serving dish, and let sit for 10 minutes (the sauce will thicken as it sits). Toss the potatoes in the sauce to coat. Sprinkle with the chopped walnuts, pomegranate seeds and parsley.

Starting with a few drops and steadily increasing the stream, slowly drizzle in the olive oil, whisking continuously, until the dressing is thickened and emulsified.
• Transfer the warm sweet potatoes to a large bowl. Toss with 2-3 tablespoons of the dressing until well coated. Add the pomegranate seeds, pistachios, feta, salt and pepper and gently toss to combine. Drizzle with another 1-2 tablespoons of the dressing and toss to coat. Garnish with the chives.
