Sometimes just a few key ingredients can make a recipe shine. That is the case with this sweet potato recipe from Bon Appetit. All they need is a little salt, pepper and a single spice, then just roast them to perfection. Coriander and cilantro come from the same plant - coriander is the seed and cilantro is the leaf.

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 4

6 sweet potatoes, tan-skinned, cut into 1/2 inch rounds
5 Tbsp olive oil
2 1/4 tsp ground coriander
1/2 c fresh cilantro, chopped

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Mix the potatoes and oil in a large bowl. Season generously with the salt and pepper.
  • 2. Arrange the potaotes in a single layer on a big, rimmed baking sheet. Roast until tender and brown, turning after about 35 minutes, for about 45 minutes total baking time.
  • 3. Transfer to a large bowl. Toss with the coriander and cilantro and serve. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose the right sweet potatoes: Look for firm, unblemished sweet potatoes that are about the same size so that they cook evenly.
  • Wash the sweet potatoes thoroughly: Scrub the sweet potatoes under cold water to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Poke holes in the sweet potatoes: Use a fork to poke several holes in each sweet potato. This will help the steam escape and prevent the potatoes from bursting.
  • Cook the sweet potatoes until they are tender: You can bake, boil, or microwave the sweet potatoes. The cooking time will vary depending on the method you choose.
  • Let the sweet potatoes cool slightly before handling: The sweet potatoes will be very hot when they come out of the oven or microwave. Let them cool for a few minutes before handling them.
  • Add the coriander and other seasonings: Once the sweet potatoes are cool enough to handle, add the coriander, butter, salt, and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or chili powder.
  • Serve the sweet potatoes immediately: The sweet potatoes are best served immediately after they are cooked. You can also store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Coriander sweet potatoes are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With their sweet and savory flavor, coriander sweet potatoes are sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
