whats best to do with sweet potatoes on a sunday roast?

Answer 1

mash 'em with a knob of butter.

or, cut into wedges and roast with your normal spuds

Answer 2

Depends how you are doing your sweet potatoes, I always roast them along with the roast potatoes and sometimes with roast parsnips. That is what I did today, with roast lamb, cabbage and cauliflower

I wonder how many make the traditional Sunday roast? I am glad to see it has not been thrown out..

BTW, I use goose or duck fat to roast the veggies

Answer 3

Well I got great ideas for the next time I cook a roast and Sweet Potatoes.....I have usually microwaved them , boiled them till soft, or oil the skin and wrap them like a baked potato and bake um. Then cut in half lengthwise, and just add butter, salt and pepper to taste. Sometimes, I make a cinnamon sauce to drizzle over them, with butter, brown sugar, a bit of water, and cinnamon, and if on hand a splash of Heavy cream. Yummy anyway you do them......

Answer 4

Cover them with thyme before you roast. Really adds a new dimension to the already lovely flavour of the sweet potato.

Answer 5

quarter them and put them in the roast along with your carrots and onion the last 1 1/2 hour of cooking time....or make them on the side like baked potatoes.
