Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 medium sweet potatoes, scrubbed
4 bananas, unpeeled
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup honey
Kosher salt
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup dark brown sugar
1 1/2 cups pecans, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Prick the sweet potatoes all over with a fork, put them in a roasting pan and roast for 30 minutes. Toss the bananas into the pan and continue roasting for 10 to 15 minutes, until both the bananas and potatoes are very soft. Remove the pan from the oven but don't turn the oven off.
  • When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, scoop out the flesh into a large mixing bowl. Peel the bananas and add them to the bowl along with 1 stick of the butter, and the honey. Season with salt and beat vigorously with a wooden spoon until everything's well combined and the mixture is fluffy. Spoon into an oven-proof serving bowl and smooth the top.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, use your fingers to rub together the remaining stick of butter, the brown sugar, flour, and pecans until the mixture is the consistency of coarse crumbs. Sprinkle the crumb mixture over the sweet potatoes and return to the oven. Cook for about 20 minutes, until the crumbs are golden. Serve hot.

Categories     Milk/Cream     Side     Fourth of July     Thanksgiving     Banana     Sweet Potato/Yam     Butter     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 sweet potatoes or large yams, each about 10 ounces
About 3 tablespoons kosher salt, plus additional as needed
1 banana, with a 2-inch slit cut into the peel
8 tablespoons (4 ounces) unsalted butter
2 cups heavy cream
1 cinnamon stick
1/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon finely ground fresh black pepper, plus additional as needed

Steps:

  • 1. Wash each of the potatoes well, poke holes into them with a fork, rub each with about 1 teaspoon of salt, and wrap with heavy-duty aluminum foil.
  • 2. Place directly on hot coals and cook for about 20 minutes, or cook in a 350°F barbecue for about 50 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a paring knife. At the same time, cook the banana in the peel until blackened, about 15 minutes.
  • 3. Carefully take the potatoes out of the foil and scoop the flesh out from the skin into a large bowl. Cover with foil. Scoop the flesh out of the banana into a separate bowl.
  • Increase temperature to high.
  • 4. Place a small roasting pan or deep baking dish with high sides that can take the direct flame (a 13 x 9-inch baking dish with a 15-cup capacity is ideal) over the heat and let heat up for 5 minutes.
  • Add the butter and let melt. Add the cream, cinnamon stick, brown sugar, potatoes, banana, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Using a potato masher, mash the potatoes and banana, and stir to combine.
  • Season to taste with additional salt and pepper as needed.

SALT-RUBBED SWEET POTATOES WITH SOUR CREAM AND CHIVES



Salt-Rubbed Sweet Potatoes With Sour Cream and Chives image

If you've ever thought the somewhat-dull sweet potato could use some punch, try covering it in a layer of salt before you bake it: The salt flavors and tenderizes the skin, leaving a crisp exterior that begs for the cooling tang of sour cream. Leave the potatoes a little damp after you've scrubbed them clean so that you'll have an easier time getting the salt to stick.

Categories     for one, for two, lunch, quick, snack, weekday, vegetables, side dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 medium sweet potatoes (8 to 10 ounces each), scrubbed and left damp
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup minced chives
Black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Use a fork to poke holes all over the flesh of the damp potatoes, then rub each one all over with 1/2 tablespoon salt.
  • Bake for about 1 hour, until tender, then allow to cool slightly before brushing off excess salt and slicing each one lengthwise. Open up the sweet potato, use a fork to rough up its flesh, then dollop each with 1 tablespoon sour cream and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon chives. Garnish with black pepper.

SWEET POTATOES WITH SOUR CREAM AND PECANS



Sweet Potatoes With Sour Cream and Pecans image

Soft at the center, caramelized at the edges and warmly spiced from the garam masala, these roasted sweet potatoes get a tangy bite from lime-spiked sour cream, while toasted pecans add crunch. You can make the lime sour cream up to four hours ahead. Simply pull it out of the fridge 30 minutes before serving, and let it come to room temperature before drizzling it over the potatoes.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     vegetables, side dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons coconut oil or olive oil
2 pounds sweet potatoes (4 to 5 medium potatoes), scrubbed but not peeled
1 teaspoon garam masala (or curry powder)
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more as needed
Large pinch of black pepper
1/2 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice, plus more for serving
1 to 3 tablespoons whole milk, for thinning the sauce
1 tablespoon lime zest
1/3 cup toasted pecans, roughly chopped (see Note)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. If your coconut oil is solid, place it in a small saucepan over low heat. Let it melt, stirring with a wooden spoon. (No need to heat liquid coconut oil or olive oil.)
  • Cut each sweet potato in half lengthwise, then slice each half lengthwise into 3 or 4 wedges, about 3/4-inch thick.
  • Put the sweet potato wedges in a large bowl and add the coconut oil, garam masala, 3/4 teaspoon salt and the pinch of pepper, tossing everything so the potatoes are well coated.
  • Spread the potatoes in an even layer on a large baking sheet. (Lining the pan with parchment paper will make clean up easier, but it's not necessary.) Roast, using tongs to carefully turn the potatoes after 30 minutes, until soft and caramelized, about 1 hour.
  • While the sweet potatoes are roasting, make the lime sour cream: In a small bowl, whisk together sour cream, lime juice and a pinch of salt. Whisk in enough milk (by the teaspoon) to make a pourable sauce. It should be a bit thicker than heavy cream. Taste and add more salt and lime juice as needed. Set aside.
  • Once the sweet potatoes are done but still hot on the baking sheet, sprinkle lime zest all over them. (Adding the zest to the hot potatoes brings out the lime flavor.)
  • Using tongs or a large serving spoon, arrange sweet potatoes on serving platter. Drizzle the sour cream mixture all over the potatoes, and sprinkle toasted pecans on top. Squeeze more lime juice on top if you like. Serve hot or warm.
