Categories     side-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 sprigs fresh rosemary, picked and finely chopped
1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
Juice of 1/2 lemon
2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch dice
Extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3 Honeycrisp or Granny Smith apples

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl, toss the sweet potatoes generously with some olive oil, salt, cinnamon and cayenne. Lay the sweet potatoes out on a sheet tray, place them in the oven and roast until they are very soft and mushy, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Peel the apples and cut into 1-inch dice. Toss the apples with the lemon juice, some olive oil, salt and the rosemary. Lay them out on a sheet tray and place in the oven during the last 15 minutes of the cooking time for the sweet potatoes. When done, the apples should be soft and cooked through but still hold their shape. Sprinkle the walnuts over the apples during the last 5 minutes in the oven.
  • Transfer the sweet potatoes to a large bowl and coarsely mash them with a potato masher. Stir in the cooked apples and walnuts. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
  • Serve immediately or keep in a warm oven and serve hot.

4 bone-in pork chops, each about 1 inch thick (about 2 1/2 pounds total)
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 medium sweet potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds
1 large sweet onion, such as Vidalia, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds

ROASTED APPLES AND SWEET POTATOES



Roasted Apples and Sweet Potatoes image

Looking for an alternative to baked sweet potatoes, I found this wonderful recipe in Southern Living magazine. It is a great side dish for pork or Thanksgiving dinner. The hint of orange really adds some zest(no pun intended) to these everyday ingredients. If you prefer your apples crisp rather than tender, you can bake them for a little less time.

Steps:

Tips:

  • Choose the right sweet potatoes: Look for firm, brightly colored sweet potatoes without blemishes or bruises.
  • Wash and dry the sweet potatoes thoroughly: This will help them roast evenly and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
  • Cut the sweet potatoes into uniform pieces: This will ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Toss the sweet potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper: This will help them brown and develop flavor.
  • Roast the sweet potatoes at a high temperature: This will help them caramelize and develop a crispy exterior.
  • Add the apples to the pan halfway through roasting: This will prevent them from overcooking.
  • Serve the roasted sweet potatoes and apples immediately: They are best enjoyed warm and fresh out of the oven.
