Roasted Sweet Potatoes With Yogurt And Sesame Seeds Recipes

30 MINUTE SESAME ROASTED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Toss the sweet potatoes with the vegetable oil, chili powder, cayenne, and salt and pepper. Place on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes, stirring gently every 5-10 minutes.
• Increase the heat to 400 degrees and roast for another 5-10 minutes until the sweet potatoes are turning golden brown. Continue to stir the sweet potato pieces as needed to prevent over-browning. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
• On a separate platter or directly on the baking sheet, drizzle the sweet potatoes with the sesame oil and tahini. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Add a handful of cilantro leaves. Serve immediately.

MAPLE ROASTED SWEET POTATOES WITH YOGURT AND HORSERADISH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Pierce the potatoes with a fork and roast until al dente, about 40 minutes. Allow to cool before peeling and cutting into 2-inch-thick coins.
• Adjust the oven temperature to 450 degrees F.
• Combine the maple syrup and miso in a medium bowl and whisk until combined. Thin with a little water if needed to make sure it is pourable.
• Place the potatoes in an 8-inch square baking dish and pour the maple syrup mixture over the top. Roast until the edges start to char up a little bit, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, grate the fresh horseradish into to the yogurt in a medium bowl, then season with salt, pepper and red wine vinegar. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Set aside.
• Mix together the peanuts, chia seeds, poppy seeds, sesame seeds and sunflower seeds in a shallow dish. Roll the roasted potato slices in the seed mixture.
• Place the potatoes, seeded-side up, atop the horseradish yogurt on a large serving platter.

ROASTED SESAME SWEET POTATOES & ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the potatoes in a large roasting tin and toss with the garlic, ginger, sesame oil, fish sauce and 1 tbsp soy sauce. Roast for 20 mins or until golden brown and tender.
• Add the asparagus, 3 tbsp water and the remaining soy, and roast for 10 mins more. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds, then serve.

OVEN-ROASTED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 230C/210C fan/gas 8. Chop the sweet potatoes into 2-3cm cubes.
• Tip into a large, shallow roasting tin, drizzle with the oil and season with salt and pepper. If you're adding additional veg or herbs, such as sliced red onions, garlic cloves and thyme, tip these in as well. Toss everything together to coat in the oil, then roast for 20 mins. Toss again to ensure the potatoes cook evenly, and roast for another 15-20 mins until the potatoes are lightly browned on the outside and tender when pierced with a fork or knife.

YOGURT & SPICE CRUSTED ROAST POTATOES

Steps:

• Cover the potatoes with lots of cold water in a medium saucepan, bring to the boil then simmer for 4 mins. Drain and leave until cool.
• Grease a baking tray. Mix together all the marinade ingredients with a pinch of salt, ensuring they're well combined. Dip potatoes in the marinade, making sure they're well coated, then place on the baking tray. Leave to marinate in the fridge for 30 mins.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Place baking tray in the oven and cook potatoes for 20 mins, until browned and crisp.
