L SBaked Sweet Potatoes with Maple Crème Fraîche
https://ediblesanfrancisco.com/recipes/baked-sweet-potatoes-maple-creme-fraiche/
Ingredient
1/2 cup
crème fraîche or sour cream
1 tablespoon
maple syrup or honey
1 tablespoon
fresh lime juice (or lemon)
2 teaspoons
fish sauce
1/2 teaspoon
ground black pepper
2 tablespoons
thinly sliced scallions, both green and white parts
2 tablespoon
roasted peanuts
1 teaspoon
red chilli flakes
1/2 teaspoon
lime zest
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Rinse and scrub the sweet potatoes under running tap water. Slice them lengthwise and place them in a roasting pan, cut side facing up. Brush with the butter and sprinkle with salt.
* Step 2
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
* Step 3
Cover the pan with a sheet of aluminum foil and press around the edges to seal snugly. Bake for 20 minutes.
* Step 4
After 20 minutes, remove the foil, baste the sweet potatoes with the rest of the butter, if any. Flip them, and cook, uncovered, for 20 minutes more, until the sweet potatoes are cooked thoroughly and are tender; a knife inserted into the center of the sweet potato should slide through easily. The cut side should be soft and sweet and the butter should have caramelized.
* Step 5
Remove from the heat and let rest for 5 minutes.
* Step 6
To prepare the dressing, in a small bowl, combine the crème fraîche, maple syrup, lime juice, fish sauce, if using, and pepper. Taste and season with salt.
* Step 7
To serve, top the warm roasted potatoes with a few tablespoons of the maple crème fraîche dressing. Sprinkle with the scallions, peanuts, red chilli flakes, and lime zest. Serve with the extra dressing on the side.
