ROASTED SWEET POTATO SALAD WITH BLACK BEANS AND CHILE DRESSING



Roasted Sweet Potato Salad With Black Beans and Chile Dressing image

Start with sweet potatoes, which are in season, beautiful and cheap, and roast them with red onion and olive oil. Roasting instead of boiling makes a huge difference: not only do you get a rich, smoky flavor, but the peeled exterior is toughened a bit so that the potatoes stay intact when tossed with the other ingredients. You can serve this sweet potato salad warm or at room temperature; it's great both ways.
