HASSELBACK-SWEET-POTATOES

Course Potatoes, Side dishes
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 1 hour
Total Time 1 hour 11 minutes
Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 4 medium sweet potatoes
  • 1 tbs. unsalted butter melted
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp thyme fresh leaves, finely chopped
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • salt & pepper kosher and finely ground
  • 1/3 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 scallions / green onions chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Make a series of 1/8-inch slices along each potato, slicing 2/3 of the way through.
  • Stir together the butter, oil, thyme, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Rub the potatoes all over with the mixture, getting in between the slices.
  • Place on the baking sheet and roast until the center of the potatoes are tender and the outside is crisp, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Halfway through the roasting time, remove the potatoes from the oven and run a fork gently across the tops of the potatoes, using light pressure, to fan the slices and separate them from one another.
  • Meanwhile, stir the yogurt and scallions with a pinch salt and a pinch pepper. Serve the sauce with the potatoes.

Notes

These, Hasselback, potatoes are whole potatoes that have been cut into a fan shape, then dotted with a butter, oil, thyme and garlic mixture before baking. Serve with a Greek yogurt topping for a new way to eat your sweet potatoes.
