Time 17m

Yield 4 to 6 portions

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups peeled sweet potato or yams cut into 1/2-inch dice, about 1 1/2 pounds
2 large onions, peeled and cut in 1/2-inch dice
1/4 cup canola oil
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons maple syrup
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Steps:

Parboil the potatoes for approximately 5 to 6 minutes in salted water. Drain and allow to cool to room temperature.
Meanwhile, saute the diced onions in the oil plus 1 tablespoon of the butter until richly browned and caramel colored. This step insures that all of the onion's sweetness is developed. Cool the onions, then mix with the cooled potatoes, maple syrup, and cinnamon.
Melt the remaining buttter in a 10-inch non-stick saute pan over medium heat and add the potato/onion mixture. Take care to pack the mixture tightly in one neat layer to saute and brown.
Using the back of a spoon, form the potato and onion mixture into a rounded cake. When the potatoes and onions begin to adhere and brown, they can be flipped over using a large spatula or the back of a plate. Alternately, they may be simply stirred to crisp evenly. If you've flipped them, brown the second side. Serve hot.

Time 35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed into 1-inch cubes
6 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1/2 red onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1/4 cup green onions
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

Add the potatoes to a large saucepan of salted boiling water and simmer until tender. Drain and dry completely with paper towels.
Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the red onions, bell peppers, green onions, and garlic, and saute until tender and lightly golden, 5 to 6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and remove to a bowl.
Add the remaining 4 tablespoons oil to the skillet, and then add the drained and dried sweet potatoes. Cook in a single layer, stirring occasionally, on medium heat until they are tender, about 6 minutes. Increase the heat to high and cook, without stirring, until the potatoes are golden and crisp, about 2 more minutes. Sprinkle with the smoked paprika and gently stir in the onion mixture and parsley.
