Zaatar Sweet Potatoes And Garlicky Kale Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400ºF and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
• To make the za'atar, first toast the sesame seeds. In a small dry pan, heat the seeds over medium for 3 to 5 minutes, until they're lightly browned. Stir occasionally, so they don't burn. Let them cool. In a small bowl, combine the sumac, thyme, sesame seeds, and salt.
• Fill a medium pot halfway with water and bring it to a boil. Add the sweet potatoes and parboil them (cook them just until they start to soften). This will take 5 to 7 minutes. Drain the potatoes and transfer them to a medium bowl. Toss them with a glug of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the za'atar seasoning until coated.
• Spread the potatoes on the prepared baking sheet and roast them for 10 minutes. Using a spatula, move them around on the baking sheet and continue roasting for another 5 minutes or until they begin to slightly brown.
• Mix 1 tablespoon of olive oil into the remaining za'atar and set it aside.
• In a large skillet, heat a glug of olive oil over medium. When the pan is hot, add the garlic. Sauté until the garlic becomes fragrant, about a minute. Add the greens and stir until they turn bright green and begin to soften. Add the sweet potatoes and heat everything for a few more minutes.
• Top the vegetables with some of the za'atar and oil mixture and serve.

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Combine potatoes and olive oil in a large bowl and mix well. Sprinkle potatoes with za'atar, salt, and pepper; toss to coat. Transfer potatoes to the prepared baking sheet.
• Set baking sheet on the lowest rack of a cold oven and heat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Roast until potatoes are golden brown and tender, 30 to 35 minutes, stirring halfway through.
