ROASTED SWEET POTATOES WITH HORSERADISH BUTTER



Roasted Sweet Potatoes With Horseradish Butter image

This recipe plays velvety, honeyed roasted sweet potatoes against the sharp bite of a fresh horseradish and herb compound butter. It's a great dish for feeding a crowd at Thanksgiving or another gathering. You can roast the potatoes and make the horseradish butter ahead, then pop them into the oven just 15 minutes before serving, while the turkey rests. If you can't find fresh horseradish, substitute another aromatic ingredient like garlic, fresh ginger or scallions, adjusting the quantities to taste. You'll need less ginger and garlic than you would horseradish, and probably the same amount of scallions. Taste as you go.

Time 2h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup finely grated fresh horseradish, plus coarsely grated horseradish for garnish if desired
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, more for garnish
3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, more for garnish
3 tablespoons panko bread crumbs
Finely grated zest and juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 pounds sweet potatoes

Steps:

  • In a heavy-duty resealable plastic bag, combine butter, horseradish, parsley, dill, panko, lemon zest and juice, salt and pepper. Close the bag, pressing out most of the air. Mash everything together until well combined and smooth, then use a ruler or the back edge of a knife to scrape and work the butter to the bottom of the bag so it forms a log, rolling it as you go. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to firm up, or up to 1 week.
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Prick sweet potatoes several times with a fork and wrap tightly in aluminum foil. Transfer to a baking sheet and roast until potatoes are tender, 45 minutes to 1 1/2 hours, depending on the size of the potatoes. Once cool enough to handle, unwrap and slice into 1/2-inch-thick rounds (there is no need to peel unless you dislike the skins). Potatoes can be roasted up to 2 days ahead; wrap and chill, then slice them just before using.
  • Arrange rounds on a large rimmed baking sheet and count how many you have. Slice enough thin slabs of butter from the log so that you have one per potato slice, and place butter on top of potato slices.
  • Move the oven rack so that it's 4 inches away from the broiler. Bake potatoes at 350 degrees until they are heated through and the butter is softened, 5 to 15 minutes depending upon how cold the potatoes were. Adjust oven temperature to broil, and broil until the butter is golden brown at the edges, 2 to 4 minutes. Serve garnished with herbs and fresh horseradish if you like.

BAKED SWEET POTATOES



Baked Sweet Potatoes image

Sweet potatoes are in the same family as other potatoes but cooking them requires a different approach to get the fluffy interior and sweet caramelized flavor we all love. After testing several techniques-wrapping in foil, pricking and not pricking, using a roasting pan-we found the following method delivered on all fronts, with minimal effort. Pricking with a fork allows steam to release and the potato flesh to separate from the skin, something that didn't always happen otherwise. Baking the potatoes on a wire rack nested in a baking sheet also helped the potatoes cook more evenly (and made cleaning up much easier). Lastly, allowing the potatoes to rest in the turned-off oven for 30 minutes after baking allowed the flavors to develop even further, though you can skip this step if you are short on time.

Time 1h35m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 medium sweet potatoes (8 to 12 ounces each)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Unsalted butter, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil, then set a wire rack inside the baking sheet.
  • Prick each of the sweet potatoes 5 times with a fork and place on top of the prepared rack, keeping space between potatoes to allow heat to circulate. Bake the sweet potatoes until a paring knife can easily go through without resistance, about 1 hour. Turn the oven off and let the potatoes rest inside for 30 minutes more. Remove from the oven and cut each potato in half lengthwise. Season with salt and pepper and top with butter if using.

BAKED SWEET POTATOES



Baked Sweet Potatoes image

Making baked sweet potatoes is an easy, healthy way to add some nutrients to any meal.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Healthy Recipes     Gluten-Free Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 large sweet potatoes
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees with rack in center position.
  • Scrub and pat potatoes dry. Pierce potatoes all over with the tines of a fork and bake in oven, directly on rack, until soft and caramelizing, 1 1/2 hours.
  • Slash the tops of potatoes open with the tip of a sharp knife and push ends of each potato toward each other to open. Divide butter, salt, and pepper among potatoes and serve.

Tips:

  • For perfectly tender sweet potatoes, pierce them with a fork before baking. This allows steam to escape and prevents them from bursting.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet. Give the sweet potatoes plenty of space so that they can roast evenly.
  • If you don't have fresh dill, you can use dried dill. Use 1 tablespoon of dried dill for every ¼ cup of butter.
  • To make the dill butter ahead of time, simply mix the butter, dill, garlic, salt, and pepper together and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • When you're ready to serve the sweet potatoes, let them cool for a few minutes before slicing them open. This will help prevent the potatoes from falling apart.

Conclusion:

Baked sweet potatoes with dill butter are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They're also a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes. Whether you're serving them for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion, these sweet potatoes are sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a tasty and nutritious side dish, give this recipe a try.
