Cook's Note: Although traditional tians are baked in heavy ceramic dishes, you will have good results using a more common baking dish as long as it is shallow and has 2 1/2 to 3 quart capacity, such as a 12" x 2" x 7" Pyrex dish.

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 medium-large sweet potatoes (preferably dark orange), peeled, quartered lengthwise, and sliced 1/4-inch thick
1 (14-ounce) can small white beans, rinsed in a strainer
1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 medium red onion, cut into 2-inch chunks and sections separated
2 plum tomatoes, cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks
5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon salt
Generous seasoning freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup olive oil
3 slices homemade-style white bread
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Combine all the vegetables, garlic, salt, pepper, and oil in a large bowl and toss well. (The vegetables can be prepared to this point up to 4 hours in advance.) Pack the mixture into a 2 1/2 or 3-quart shallow baking dish and flatten the top surface. Bake 45 minutes.
  • To make the fresh bread crumbs, tear up the bread and make crumbs out of it in a food processor or blender. Pour the crumbs into a bowl and drizzle with the oil. Rub the oil into the crumbs with your fingertips to moisten them evenly.
  • Remove the tian from the oven. Spread the crumbs all over the top. Return the tian to the oven and bake 15 minutes more, or until the topping is a rich golden color. Let sit 10 minutes before serving.

Categories     Sweet Potato/Yam     Parsnip     Apple     Thyme     Thanksgiving     Fall     Herb     Casserole/Gratin

Yield 10-12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 cups apple cider
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons thyme leaves
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons Aleppo pepper
4 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
6 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes (about 8 medium), peeled, sliced into 1/8"-thick rounds
2 pounds parsnips (about 3 extra-large), peeled, sliced into 1/8"-thick rounds
Special equipment:
A 4-quart casserole dish or braiser, preferably round

Steps:

  • Position rack in middle of oven and preheat to 325°F. Bring cider to a boil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low, add butter, thyme, Aleppo, and 2 tsp. salt, and cook, stirring, until butter is melted. Let cool slightly.
  • Place potatoes and parsnips in a large bowl. Pour cider mixture over and toss to coat. Stack a handful of slices about 3" high, then place vertically in casserole dish. Using a measuring cup or small bowl, keep slices standing up as you go, working around the perimeter and then into the center, forming concentric circles. Continue arranging slices in pan until tightly packed (you may have some leftover). Pour in cider mixture to come halfway up sides of dish; discard remaining cider mixture. Sprinkle with remaining 2 tsp. salt and cover tightly with foil.
  • Bake, covered, 1 hour. Remove foil and brush pan juices over tops of slices with a pastry brush. Increase oven temperature to 425°F and bake, uncovered, until golden brown on top, 35-40 minutes more.
  • Do Ahead
  • After first round of baking at 325°F, let cool, then chill for up to 2 days. Bring to room temperature, then bake, uncovered, at 425°F for 40-50 minutes.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-cooked sweet potatoes. Simply roast them in the oven or microwave them until tender.
  • If you don't have any fresh sage, you can use dried sage instead. Just use about 1/3 of the amount called for in the recipe.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to this tian, such as zucchini, bell peppers, or mushrooms.
  • To make a vegetarian version of this dish, simply omit the bacon.
  • Serve this tian with a side of salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.

Conclusion:

This sweet potato and sage tian is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes. The combination of sweet potatoes, sage, and bacon is a classic, and the creamy goat cheese adds a touch of richness. This tian is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
