Shopping List
  • 1 pound Japanese sweet potato(es) (Note 1)
  • 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 cup prepared romesco sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions
  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 420 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Step 2: Slice the unpeeled sweet potato(es) into generous, 1/2-inch thick rounds. Spread the slices on a baking sheet and toss with the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Roast for 20 to 30 minutes, flipping over after the first 10 minutes. They will be ready when they are super soft and golden brown.
  3. Serve: Swoosh a big dollop of the warm romesco sauce over a plate with the back of a spoon. Top with the warm potatoes and a drizzle of olive oil and optional parsley for garnish. Enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Note 1: Japanese sweet potatoes (satsumaimo) have a red toned purple skin with a pale white interior. They have a distinct flavor difference from orange sweet potatoes. If you cannot find Japanese sweet potatoes, use another white-flesh sweet potato variety.
