Shredded Sweet Potato With Cumin And Scallion Recipes

Steps:

• Stir together potatoes, scallions, flour, eggs, salt, and pepper.
• Heat oil in a deep 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. Working in batches of 4, spoon 1/8 cup potato mixture per latke into oil and flatten to 3-inch diameter with a slotted spatula. Reduce heat to moderate and cook until golden, about 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Transfer latkes with spatula to paper towels to drain.

Steps:

• Combine 1 1/2 pounds chopped peeled sweet potatoes, 1 bunch scallions (cut into 2-inch pieces), 6 crushed garlic cloves and 1 tablespoon fresh thyme in a bowl. Drizzle with 1/4 cup olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss. Place on a sheet of foil and fold up. Grill over low heat until the potatoes are tender, 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir carrots until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add potato; cook and stir until lightly browned and mostly tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Add leeks and onion; cook and stir until onion is lightly browned, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Mix shredded sweet potato, black beans, cumin, oregano, chili powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper into carrot-potato mixture; cook and stir until sweet potato is tender, about 10 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and transfer sweet potato mixture to a bowl, scraping skillet clean with a rubber spatula.
• Heat each tortilla in the same skillet over medium heat until warmed, about 30 seconds per side. Spread mashed avocado onto each warmed tortilla and top with sweet potato mixture, queso fresco, salsa, cilantro, and lime juice.

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium. Peel sweet potatoes, and cut lengthwise into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Toss potatoes in a large bowl with oil, thyme, and cayenne pepper; season with salt and black pepper.
• Grill potatoes, turning frequently, until tender when pierced with the tip of a paring knife, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Return grilled potatoes to bowl; add butter, and break potatoes into large pieces with the side of a spoon. Toss in scallions, and serve.

Steps:

• Peel sweet potatoes and quarter length-wise. In a food processor shred sweet potatoes.
• In a 12-inch non-stick skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté sweet potatoes with cumin and salt and pepper to taste, stirring, until just tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in scallion and lemon juice.
