Sweet Potato Lyonnaise Recipes

POTATOES LYONNAISE

Steps:

• In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, combine potatoes, salt and enough cold water to cover by 1 in. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are slightly cooked but still al dente, 3-4 minutes. Drain. , Meanwhile, in a large skillet, melt 3 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add onion; cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown, 10-12 minutes. Remove onion; set aside. In same skillet, melt remaining 3 tablespoons butter. Add potatoes; cook, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are golden brown, 8-10 minutes. Add onions, rosemary and pepper; toss to combine. Cook until heated through.

YAMS LYONNAISE WITH BACON

Steps:

• In a large pan, add the butter and olive oil. Heat on medium or medium low heat.
• Add onions to the pan.
• Saute onions until mostly caramelized. Low heat is better since you want the onions to caramelize and not burn.
• While the onions are caramelizing, poke holes in yams. Place on plate with a little water. Bake them in the microwave until a fork can be poked into them easily and they're firm but not hard, roughly 20 minutes. Let the yams cool enough that you can handle them. Slice them. They may break apart. That's okay!
• When the onions are mostly caramelized, remove from pan and dice.
• Add the uncooked bacon into the hot pan.
• After the bacon is thoroughly cooked, add the onions, yams, and brown sugar. Heat through until the sugar is dissolved and everything is combined. Add salt to taste.
• Enjoy!
