Sweet Potatoes With Yogurt Maple Dressing Recipes

SWEET POTATO SALAD WITH ORANGE-MAPLE DRESSING

Steps:

• In a large pot fitted with a steamer basket, steam the sweet potatoes in batches until just tender, 12 to 15 minutes per batch. Transfer them to a large bowl and let cool to room temperature.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, make the Orange-Maple Dressing by whisking the olive oil, maple syrup, orange juice, vinegar, ginger, nutmeg and salt.
• Add the green onions, parsley, pecans and raisins to the cooled sweet potatoes. Pour the Orange-Maple Dressing over the potato mixture and toss gently to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper. This salad can be made several hours ahead of time; cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

• 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.
