ROASTED SWEET POTATOES WITH CHIVES
1.5 – 2 pounds of sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1.25” cubes
4-6 shallots, peeled
2 Tablespoons of melted butter, vegetable oil, olive oil or a combination
Salt and ground pepper
1 Tablespoon snipped fresh chives
· Heat oven to 400 degrees F
· Spread cubed sweet potatoes and shallots in a roasting pan large enough to hold them without crowding. Toss sweet potatoes with butter and/or oil and sprinkle with salt.
· Roast for 45-50 minutes, stirring and shaking potatoes and shallots every 15 minutes, until tender and browned.
· Take from oven and sprinkle with pepper; taste and adjust seasonings. Add chives and toss. Serve hot or at room temperature.
*** I sometimes will add whole, unpeeled cloves of garlic to the mixture during the last 20 minutes of roasting.
Serves 4
