Sweet Potato Quinoa And Edamame Salad With Miso Dressing And Pan Fried Chicken Recipes

SWEET POTATO EDAMAME SALAD

Steps:

• Boil potatoes and big sweet potatoes for about 25 minutes -- you want to just be able to get your fork in them, but not so soft that you would/could mash them.
• Shock potatoes in ice-cold water -- set aside until you can easily handle them.
• Boil yams (the small, American sweet potatoes -- not the true "yam") for about 7 minutes -- you want to just be able to get your fork in them, but not so soft that you would/could mash them.
• Shock potatoes in ice-cold water -- set aside until you can easily handle them.
• Steam Edamame until cooked (5 mins).
• Shock Edamame in ice-cold water -- set aside until you can easily handle them.
• Whisk together Mustard, Vinegars, EVOO, Salt and Pepper in a small bowl. Feel free to use your favorite mustard or vinegar (I use a spicy whiskey mustard and some lingonberry infused apple-cider vinegar) -- this is your dressing, it should be thick, but somewhat viscous so you can easily mix into your salad.
• Cut white potatoes into 2 inch cubes (more or less), cut the sweet potatoes slightly smaller, and slice the yams thinly, dice onion finely.
• Mix dressing into potatoes and onions, add edamame, and mix again -- chill for 2 hours, and eat.

SWEET POTATO, QUINOA AND EDAMAME SALAD WITH MISO DRESSING AND PAN FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°C (390ºF). Mix 2 heaped tablespoons miso paste and olive oil together to form a paste. Toss with the sweet potato in a large bowl, until well-coated. Place sweet potato onto a baking tray lined with baking paper. Season. Roast for 20 minutes or until tender. Set aside. If using unshelled edamame, squeeze the beans from their pods. Blanch shelled edamame in boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain and allow to cool. Add edamame to the roasted sweet potato. Combine quinoa and 3 cups of water in a saucepan. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stand, covered, for ten minutes or until water has been absorbed. Spread quinoa out on a tray and set aside for ten minutes to dry. Add to the sweet potato and edamame, along with the coriander and sesame seeds. ♦ Reserve ⠓ of the undressed Sweet potato, quinoa and edamame salad (about 4 cups) for the Sweet potato and quinoa fritters. Meanwhile, make miso dressing. Place dressing ingredients in a small saucepan and warm over a low heat, stirring, until miso and honey are dissolved (1–2 minutes). Set aside to cool. Drizzle dressing over the remaining salad, and toss gently. Scatter with extra sesame seeds and extra coriander
