Ingredients: 2 pounds sweet potatoes (2 large), scrubbed, skins on, cut length wise into thick wedges
olive oil
kosher salt
4 tablespoons butter
1 medium yellow onion, about 6 to 8 oz., finely diced
½ cup balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon red chili flakes
1 teaspoon herbs de Provence
1 cup plain, low fat yogurt
¼ cup fresh chopped dill
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
½ cup pomegranate seeds
Preheat oven to 450°F.
Directions:
Combine prepared sweet potato wedges with a generous drizzling (2-3 tablespoons) of olive oil and season to taste with salt. Bake in a roasting pan for 35-40 minutes, or until fork tender and the edges are charred slightly, and crisp.
In a 2-quart saucepan, heat butter over medium heat. Add the diced onions, red pepper flakes, and herbs de Provence and sauté for 5-7 minutes, until the onions soften and appear translucent. Now add the balsamic vinegar to deglaze the pan and stir, gently scraping up any bits off the bottom. Cook until liquid is reduced by at least half and add 1 cup of water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to simmer, and cook down for 35-40 minutes, until mixture has thickened and resembles a loose jam. Set aside.
In a small bowl, whip the yogurt and ½ teaspoon kosher salt with a fork to thin it out. Stir in half of the fresh dill, and set aside.
To assemble, arrange sweet potato wedges skin side down in a circular pattern on a platter. Drizzle the onion jam in a circular pattern, followed by the yogurt mixture. Sprinkle with remaining dill, smoked paprika and pomegranate seeds.
