Best 4 Grilled Asparagus And Sweet Potato Miso Soup Recipes

ROASTED SWEET POTATO AND MISO SOUP WITH COLLARD GREEN FURIKAKE

Steps:

• For the collard green furikake (can be made a day ahead): Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
• Rinse the collard greens and thoroughly dry them in a salad spinner or by patting them with a paper towel. Toss the greens with 1 1/2 teaspoons avocado oil and the salt. Lay them in a single layer on the prepared sheet pan. Bake until lightly browned and crispy, 15 to 18 minutes. Cool the collards on the sheet pan.
• Heat 1/4 cup avocado oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallot and ginger and cook until they begin to brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the fried shallot and ginger with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel to drain.
• Put the benne seeds in a medium skillet and toast over low heat, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Combine the toasted benne seeds, red pepper flakes and fried shallots and ginger in a small bowl. Gently crumble the crispy collard greens into the mixture. When cool, you can store the collard green furikake in an airtight container until ready to use.
• For the sweet potato soup: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
• Gently poke the sweet potatoes all over with a fork. Bake on the prepared sheet pan until the juices on the pan begin to bubble and the sweet potatoes are soft, 40 to 50 minutes.
• Combine the butter and avocado oil in a large pot over medium-low heat. When the butter melts, add the carrots, onions, garlic and ginger and cook until the onions become translucent, 6 to 10 minutes. Season with salt. Add the vinegar and miso to the pot and cook for 3 minutes.
• Remove the skins from the sweet potatoes. Place the flesh in a large bowl and mash lightly. Add the mashed potatoes to the pot. Stir in the coconut milk and broth. Simmer over medium-high heat for 10 minutes.
• Blend the soup until smooth in a high-speed blender or with a hand-held immersion blender. Season to taste with salt and white pepper. Serve hot, garnished with the collard green furikake. Enjoy!

ROASTED SWEET POTATOES AND ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with heavy-duty foil.
• 2. Put the sweet potatoes on the foil, drizzle with half of the oil and sprinkle with half of the celery salt and red pepper flakes. Turn with a spatula to coat. Roast until the potatoes are tender and beginning to shrivel, about 20 minutes.
• 3. While the potatoes are roasting, toss the asparagus with the remaining oil, celery salt and red pepper flakes in a medium bowl. Using a spatula, add the asparagus pieces to the sweet potato pan and toss to combine. Cook until the asparagus softens and the tips begin to brown, another 10 minutes. Sprinkle the Parmesan over the vegetables and cook until the cheese just melts and coats the vegetables, another 5 minutes. Spread the vegetables on a serving platter and sprinkle with the chopped parsley. Serve warm.

GRILLED ASPARAGUS AND NEW POTATOES
