ROASTED SWEET POTATO SALAD RECIPE



Roasted Sweet Potato Salad Recipe image

Roasted Sweet Potato Salad has all the best flavors of Fall in one delicious salad. It's loaded with kale, roasted sweet potatoes, apple, pecans and goat cheese, then topped with the best maple vinaigrette.

Provided by Natasha Kravchuk

Categories     Easy/Medium

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 lbs sweet potatoes ((2 medium or 3 smaller sweet potatoes) )
1 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 Tbsp maple syrup
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 bunch kale ((10 cups chopped))
1 apple (thinly sliced)
1/2 cup pecans (lightly toasted if desired)
1/2 cup dried cranberries (or pomegranate seeds)
2 oz goat cheese ((1/2 cup crumbled))
3 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 Tbsp maple syrup
1 Tbsp dijon
1 garlic clove (finely minced or pressed)
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp fine sea salt
1/8 tsp black pepper (freshly ground)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425˚F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone liner. Toast pecans on a dry skillet over medium heat, tossing frequently for a few minutes until golden and fragrant then transfer to a plate to cool.
  • Peel and dice sweet potatoes into 1/2" thick pieces and transfer them to a mixing bowl. Drizzle with 1 Tbsp olive oil, 1/2 Tbsp maple syrup, 1/2 tsp sea salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper and toss to combine.
  • Spread sweet potatoes out onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake at 425˚F for 30 minutes, flipping the sweet potatoes after 20 minutes to promote even roasting. Remove from the oven and let cool while preparing the salad.
  • In a small bowl or mason jar, combine all of the ingredients for the salad dressing in the order they are listed and thoroughly whisk together until well combined. You may need to re-whisk before dressing the salad since the dressing can separate as it sits.
  • Strip the kale leaves and discard the stems. Rinse and spin dry leaves then finely chop them into thin strips and transfer to a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with 3/4 of the dressing. Toss for a few minutes with two forks until kale is slightly softened, evenly coated in dressing, and reduced by about 1/4 in volume. Let salad rest for 15 minutes while you add the remaining ingredients.
  • Scatter roasted and cooled sweet potatoes over the kale then sprinkle on remaining toppings: sliced apple, toasted and cooled pecans, dried cranberries, and crumbled goat cheese. Drizzle the top with the remaining 1/4 of the dressing or add to taste then enjoy.

WHITE BEAN AND ROASTED POTATO SALAD WITH ROSEMARY



White Bean and Roasted Potato Salad With Rosemary image

Freshly cooked white beans hold their shape better than canned ones, so unless you're really pinched for time, cook the beans yourself for this hearty, lively winter salad. Serve it as a side dish for roasted meats or chicken. If you omit the anchovies in the dressing (use capers instead), it would be an excellent meatless main course. If you have time, it's best to give the beans a proper soak (4 to 12 hours); if not, just tack 30 to 60 minutes onto the cooking time, adding more water as needed to keep them entirely covered.

Categories     salads and dressings, appetizer, side dish

Time 2h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 cups dried cannellini or Great Northern beans
1 1/2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt, more to taste
2 bay leaves, torn
1 garlic clove, smashed
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 3/4 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 1/2-inch chunks
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
8 cups hearty winter greens, kale, collard greens, cabbage or mustard greens
2 teaspoons lemon juice, more to taste
4 anchovy fillets (see note)
2 garlic cloves
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar, more to taste
Large pinch kosher salt, more to taste
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
1 tablespoon chopped rosemary
Large pinch red chile flakes

Steps:

  • Put the beans in a bowl or pot, cover with water by 2 inches and add 1 1/2 tablespoons salt. Let soak 4 to 12 hours. Drain before using.
  • Put the soaked beans in a pot, cover with water by 2 inches and add 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 bay leaf, the smashed garlic clove and 2 tablespoons oil. Bring to a boil, then simmer until tender, about 40 to 75 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with more salt if needed.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the potatoes: Heat oven to 425 degrees. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss potatoes with 2 tablespoons oil, the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and the pepper and arrange in a single layer. Top with remaining bay leaf. Roast for 15 minutes, flip potatoes, then roast until golden and very tender, another 15 to 25 minutes.
  • While potatoes roast, make the dressing: In a blender, combine anchovies, garlic, vinegar and a large pinch of salt; blend until smooth, then blend in oil. Taste and add more salt or vinegar, or both, if needed. Transfer to a large bowl, stir in lemon zest, rosemary and chile flakes.
  • In a separate large bowl, toss greens with remaining 2 tablespoons oil, the lemon juice and a large pinch of salt. Arrange on a large serving platter.

ROASTED SWEET POTATO SALAD WITH BLACK BEANS AND CHILE DRESSING



Roasted Sweet Potato Salad With Black Beans and Chile Dressing image

Start with sweet potatoes, which are in season, beautiful and cheap, and roast them with red onion and olive oil. Roasting instead of boiling makes a huge difference: not only do you get a rich, smoky flavor, but the peeled exterior is toughened a bit so that the potatoes stay intact when tossed with the other ingredients. You can serve this sweet potato salad warm or at room temperature; it's great both ways.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     easy, side dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 medium sweet potatoes (about 1 1/2 pounds), peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
1 large onion, preferably red, chopped
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
Salt
freshly ground black pepper
1 to 2 tablespoons minced fresh hot chili, like jalapeño
1 clove garlic, peeled
Juice of 2 limes
2 cups cooked black beans, drained (canned are fine)
1 red or yellow bell pepper, seeded and finely diced
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Put sweet potatoes and onions on a large baking sheet, drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil, toss to coat and spread out in a single layer. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast, turning occasionally, until potatoes begin to brown on corners and are just tender inside, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove from oven; keep on pan until ready to mix with dressing.
  • Put chilies in a blender or mini food processor along with garlic, lime juice, remaining olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Process until blended.
  • Put warm vegetables in a large bowl with beans and bell pepper; toss with dressing and cilantro. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve warm or at room temperature, or refrigerate for up to a day.
