Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 large sweet potato ((approx. 1.5lbs))
1-2 tsp healthy oil ((olive, avocado, coconut, etc...))
salt and pepper (to taste)
3 TBSP tahini paste
2 cloves garlic
1/2-1 tsp salt ((season to taste))
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/4 tsp smoked paprika
1/4 tsp cumin
1/2 lime

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking/roasting tray with parchment paper.
  • Peel sweet potato and cut into one-inch cubes. Smash/flatten you garlic cloves with a knife.
  • Spread garlic and sweet potato spaced on a parchment-lined baking/roasting tray and drizzle with oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and roast for 30 minutes or until tender and easily mashed with a fork.
  • Allow to cool slightly, then add to a blender or food processor and puree until smooth.
  • Add tahini, salt, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, cumin and the juice from 1/2 a lime. Blend well. For a thinner consistency, add a little water (1 TBSP at a time) and continue blending until smooth and creamy. I like mine extra thick!
  • Pour contents into a small serving bowl and surround with your choice of fluffy flatbread, pita chips, and carrot sticks. For a side-dish vibe, use the dip as a flavorful base for your favorite protein and veggies. Enjoy!

SWEET POTATOES WITH YOGURT AND CILANTRO-CHILE SAUCE



Sweet Potatoes With Yogurt and Cilantro-Chile Sauce image

In this luscious vegetable dish, velvety sweet potatoes get a spicy jolt from a chile-spiked cilantro sauce spooned on top. Greek yogurt adds a creamy element and a bit of protein if you're serving these as a vegetarian main course. As a side dish, they are satisfying yet not the least bit heavy, thanks to the bright flavors of the sauce. You can make the sauce up to 4 hours ahead. Any longer than that and it starts to lose its fresh, tart taste. It's also very good on roasted carrots.

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 side dish servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup plus 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
1/2 tablespoon honey
Juice of 2 limes
Kosher salt, to taste
Black pepper, to taste
2 1/4 pounds sweet potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 1-inch wedges
1/2 bunch cilantro, leaves only (1/2 ounce)
2 green chiles, seeded and chopped
2 garlic cloves, grated on a Microplane or minced
2 tablespoons sliced blanched almonds
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 cup Greek yogurt

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a large bowl, combine 1/4 cup oil, the honey, juice from 1 lime, a large pinch of salt and pepper to taste, and toss with potato wedges. Spread in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet, bake until tender and lightly browned in spots, 45 to 55 minutes. Sprinkle with additional salt to taste.
  • Meanwhile, in a food processor, pulse to combine 1/3 cup oil, the cilantro, chiles, garlic, almonds, juice from remaining lime, vinegar and a large pinch of salt, until it forms a chunky purée. Taste and add more salt if needed.

Tips:

  • Choose the right sweet potatoes: Look for firm, unblemished sweet potatoes that are about the same size. This will ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Cut the sweet potatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly and prevent some chips from being overcooked while others are still undercooked.
  • Toss the sweet potato slices with cornstarch: This will help them crisp up in the oven.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet: Make sure there is enough space between the sweet potato slices so that they can cook evenly.
  • Bake the sweet potato chips until they are crispy: This will take about 15-20 minutes. Keep an eye on them so that they don't burn.
  • Serve the sweet potato chips with your favorite dip: The cilantro dip is a great option, but you could also use ranch dressing, hummus, or guacamole.

Conclusion:

Spicy Sweet Potato Chips with Cilantro Dip are a delicious and healthy snack that is perfect for parties, potlucks, or just a casual get-together with friends. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a tasty and satisfying snack, give these sweet potato chips a try. You won't be disappointed!
