ROASTED SWEET POTATOES WITH CRISPY CHICKPEAS



Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Crispy Chickpeas image

I'm always trying to come up with different side dishes that are healthy, flavorful and not too heavy. The chickpeas really add texture and a pop of flavor.

Provided by Marc Murphy

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and medium diced
4 medium shallots, peeled and cut in half lengthwise
1/4 cup olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Two 15.5-ounce cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 tablespoon cayenne pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 tablespoons canola oil
1/4 cup fresh mint, roughly chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Divide the potatoes and shallots between two 10-inch cast-iron skillets. Evenly drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until the potatoes are cooked through, about 25 minutes.
  • For the chickpeas: Lay the chickpeas out on a flat surface and dry them as much as you can using paper towels. In a small bowl, stir together the coriander, cumin, turmeric, cinnamon, cayenne and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
  • In a 10-inch cast-iron skillet, heat the oil over medium heat until shimmering. Line a large plate with paper towels. Working in two batches, add the chickpeas to the skillet so they are in a single layer and cook, stirring frequently, until golden and crispy, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Use a slotted spoon to transfer the chickpeas to the prepared plate and add the spice mixture. Toss everything together until combined; this helps to bloom the spices while the chickpeas are still warm.
  • Garnish the potatoes in the skillets with the chickpeas and finish with the mint.

300ml single cream (or double cream for a really creamy texture)
1 garlic clove, peeled
2 sprigs thyme or rosemary
250g bag frozen spinach
freshly grated nutmeg
butter, for greasing
850g sweet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced (about 3mm thick)

  • Put the spinach into a colander, pour over a kettle of boiling water and leave to drain for a few mins. Then squeeze out as much water as possible. Season with salt, pepper and freshly grated nutmeg.
  • Grease an ovenproof dish generously with butter and spread half the sweet potato slices across the bottom. Top with a layer of spinach, then the remaining potato.

Leave bake, and chops if serving, to rest for 5 mins, then serve with a big green salad.
