Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 pounds red-skinned sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch cubes
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1/4 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons minced peeled fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup coarsely chopped toasted pecans
1/4 cup golden raisins
1/4 cup brown raisins
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

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.
