ROASTED SWEET POTATO WEDGES WITH SAFFRON AIOLI



Roasted Sweet Potato Wedges with Saffron Aioli image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     side-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 side dish servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 large egg yolk*
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon warm water
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
Pinch saffron
1 1/3 cup golden-colored extra-virgin olive oil (See Cook's Note)
4 sweet potatoes (about 2 pounds), scrubbed and blemishes removed
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • To make the aioli: Lightly sprinkle the garlic with a pinch of the salt and smash it into a paste with the side of a cook's knife. Set aside.
  • Pour about 2 inches of water into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
  • In a medium, heatproof bowl, whisk together the remaining salt, egg yolk, vinegar, water, lemon juice, and saffron until light and frothy. Place the bowl over the simmering water and whisk constantly until the yolk mixture is just warmer than room temperature, about 20 seconds. Remove from the heat and whisk in the garlic paste.
  • While whisking constantly, gradually drizzle in the olive oil until a smooth and slightly thick sauce is formed. Store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
  • Meanwhile, make the sweet potatoes: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F.
  • Put a baking sheet on the center rack and preheat for 10 minutes.
  • Quarter the sweet potatoes and leave the skins on. In a large bowl, toss the wedges with the olive oil. Carefully remove the hot baking sheet from the oven and place the wedges evenly spaced on the pan, cut-side down. Bake until the bottoms of the potatoes are lightly browned, about 15 minutes.
  • Carefully remove the hot baking sheet from the oven. Turn the wedges so the other cut side comes in contact with the hot baking sheet. Continue to bake the sweet potatoes until both sides are browned and tender, about 15 minutes more.
  • To serve, arrange the sweet potatoes on a platter, and season with salt, to taste. Drizzle the potatoes with some of the aioli. Serve warm.
  • Cook's Note: We recommend golden olive oil for its smooth finish and low acidity. The golden color comes from olive pressed at the peak of ripeness. These oils are made on California, southern France, and Sicily.

ROASTED SWEET POTATO WEDGES WITH SAFFRON AIOLI



ROASTED SWEET POTATO WEDGES WITH SAFFRON AIOLI image

Categories     Vegetable     Side     Thanksgiving

Yield 4-6 people as side dish

Number Of Ingredients 13

Saffron Aioli:
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 large egg yolk*
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon warm water
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
Pinch saffron
1 1/3 cup golden-colored extra-virgin olive oil (See Cook's Note)
Potatoes:
4 sweet potatoes (about 2 pounds), scrubbed and blemishes removed
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • To make the aioli: Lightly sprinkle the garlic with a pinch of the salt and smash it into a paste with the side of a cook's knife. Set aside. Pour about 2 inches of water into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. In a medium, heatproof bowl, whisk together the remaining salt, egg yolk, vinegar, water, lemon juice, and saffron until light and frothy. Place the bowl over the simmering water and whisk constantly until the yolk mixture is just warmer than room temperature, about 20 seconds. Remove from the heat and whisk in the garlic paste. While whisking constantly, gradually drizzle in the olive oil until a smooth and slightly thick sauce is formed. Store in the refrigerator until ready to use. Meanwhile, make the sweet potatoes: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Put a baking sheet on the center rack and preheat for 10 minutes. Quarter the sweet potatoes and leave the skins on. In a large bowl, toss the wedges with the olive oil. Carefully remove the hot baking sheet from the oven and place the wedges evenly spaced on the pan, cut-side down. Bake until the bottoms of the potatoes are lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Carefully remove the hot baking sheet from the oven. Turn the wedges so the other cut side comes in contact with the hot baking sheet. Continue to bake the sweet potatoes until both sides are browned and tender, about 15 minutes more. To serve, arrange the sweet potatoes on a platter, and season with salt, to taste. Drizzle the potatoes with some of the aioli. Serve warm. Cook's Note: We recommend golden olive oil for its smooth finish and low acidity. The golden color comes from olive pressed at the peak of ripeness. These oils are made on California, southern France, and Sicily.

Tips:

  • To ensure crispy wedges, cut the sweet potatoes into uniform sizes and toss them with a generous amount of olive oil and seasonings.
  • For a sweeter flavor, drizzle the wedges with honey or maple syrup before roasting.
  • To add a savory touch, sprinkle the wedges with smoked paprika, cumin, or chili powder.
  • If you like a little heat, toss the wedges with a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
  • For a crispy exterior and a tender interior, roast the wedges at a high temperature until they are browned and fork-tender.
  • Serve the wedges immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, ranch, or sriracha mayo.

Conclusion:

Roasted sweet potato wedges are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are easy to make and can be customized to your own taste preferences. Whether you like them crispy, sweet, savory, or spicy, these wedges are sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful side dish, give roasted sweet potato wedges a try.
