Ingredients (Serves 4):
- 150g sweet potatoes, (about 3 medium), peeled
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Freshly ground pepper, to taste
- 1 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon butter
Method:
- Preheat oven to 225°C. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
- Cut sweet potatoes into 12mm-thick wedges. Place on the prepared baking sheet, drizzle with oil and toss well.
- Spread out in a single layer. Bake until tender when pierced with a knife, 25 to 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Meanwhile, combine vinegar and honey in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until syrupy and reduced to 1/3 cup, 12 to 15 minutes. (Watch the syrup carefully during the last few minutes of reducing to prevent burning.)
- Swirl in butter. Drizzle the sauce over the sweet potatoes.
Tips & Notes:
Make Ahead Tip:
The balsamic drizzle (Step 2) will keep in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop, adding a little water if the syrup has thickened too much, before drizzling over the roasted sweet potatoes.
