SWEET POTATOES WITH TSIMMES GLAZE



Sweet Potatoes With Tsimmes Glaze image

Traditional tsimmes is a stew of sorts that includes sweet potatoes, carrots, one or two kinds of dried fruits, and spices. It's usually served as a side dish at Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, but it also makes frequent appearances on the Passover Seder table. The word "tsimmes" sometimes means a fuss or commotion, or even a muddle. This version is anything but fussy and definitely not muddled. Here, halved sweet potatoes are simply roasted and served with a scrumptious glaze that includes prunes, orange juice, fresh ginger and a hit of lemon.

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 small sweet potatoes (6 to 8 ounces each), halved lengthwise
1 tablespoon olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 navel or Cara Cara oranges, zested and juiced
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
3 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 (1 1/2-inch) piece of fresh ginger, peeled and cut into fine slivers
1/2 cup bite-size pitted prunes, quartered

Steps:

  • Position a rack on the lower third of the oven and heat oven to 400 degrees. Line a sheet pan with foil.
  • Rub the sweet potatoes with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Arrange on the pan cut sides down and roast on the low rack until nicely browned on the cut sides and a paring knife inserted meets no resistance, 30 to 40 minutes. If they are getting too dark on the cut sides but are not yet done, turn them over.
  • Meanwhile, combine the orange juice, half of the orange zest, lemon juice, honey, cinnamon, ginger, prunes and a big pinch of salt in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then turn down the heat to maintain a steady, low simmer. Cook, stirring and smashing a few prunes against the pan occasionally, until thick and syrupy about 15 minutes. Cover to keep warm.
  • Arrange sweet potatoes on a serving platter cut sides up and spoon the glaze over top, rewarming with a splash of water to loosen, if needed. Sprinkle the remaining orange zest over the top.

SWEET POTATO, CARROT AND DRIED FRUIT CASSEROLE



Sweet Potato, Carrot and Dried Fruit Casserole image

This dish is inspired by several tsimmes recipes in Joan Nathan's "Jewish Cooking in America." Tsimmes, a Yiddish word that means "fuss," doesn't have to be fussy at all. Sometimes the dish contains meat (and is fussier than this one), but sometimes it's just fruit and vegetables. Warning: You may find yourself eating this for breakfast.

Time 1h15m

Yield Serves eight

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 medium carrots about 1 1/2 pounds, peeled and cut in 3/4-inch dice
3 medium sweet potatoes about 2 1/4 pounds, peeled and cut in 3/4-inch dice
2 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and cut in medium dice
1/4 pound pitted prunes, cut in half
1/4 pound pitted apricots, quartered
2 tablespoons mild honey, like clover
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Salt to taste about 1/2 teaspoon
1 cup fresh orange juice
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Butter or oil a 3-quart baking dish.
  • Place the carrots and sweet potatoes in a steamer set above 1 inch of boiling water, and steam for five to 10 minutes, until just tender. Drain and toss with the remaining ingredients in a large bowl. Combine well, and scrape into the prepared baking dish. Place in the oven, and bake 40 to 50 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes, until the sweet potatoes and carrots are thoroughly tender. Dot the top with butter, and bake another 10 minutes until the top is lightly browned. Remove from the heat, and serve hot or warm.
