These were yummy, so yummy!
Michael and I modified the recipe a bit from the original because we were out of some ingredients.
You can see the original version here.
Our version is below.
Crash Hot Sweet Potatoes
2 Medium Sweet Potatoes
1⁄2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 quarts water
2 tablespoons melted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
Topping:
1 & 1/2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon smoked sweet paprika
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon granulated garlic
Peel the sweet potatoes and slice about 1 & 1⁄4 inches thick. Add 1⁄2 teaspoon salt to water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add potato slices and simmer for about 5 minutes, or until somewhat softened. Remove carefully to a wire rack and allow to cool for about 10 minutes.
Blend the topping ingredients together really well with a fork, making to sure to get the sugar completely incorporated.
Line a large, heavy sheet pan with parchment paper. Using a flat bottomed bowl, slightly mash each potato slice, taking care that they stay intact. Drizzle each slice with a mixture of the butter and oil and sprinkle evenly with 1⁄2 of the topping mixture. Make sure you avoid getting the topping on the sheet between the slices if possible – it will burn and smoke before the potatoes are done. Gently turn over each slice, drizzle with the remaining butter/oil mixture and sprinkle with the remaining seasonings.
Roast at 375° for 20 minutes, carefully flip each slice and return to oven for about 10 minutes more. Serve hot.
