Bombay Sweet Potatoes

For a change of pace from marshmallows, flavor your sweet potatoes with Indian-style spices.

Make these ahead of time, wrap them in foil and reheat them on the hot grill. If you can't find black mustard seeds, just leave them out.

Serves: 6 Save

Ingredients (13)

  • 1 pound sweet potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon black mustard seeds
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro

Directions

  1. Peel potatoes and cut into 2-inch pieces. Place in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until just beginning to soften, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain.
  2. Heat oil in a wok or large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add mustard seeds and bay leaf. When seeds start jumping, add ginger and onion. Saute until onion is deep golden brown. Reduce heat to medium-low and add turmeric, chili powder, lemon juice, garlic, salt and potatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, taking care not to break the potatoes. Add tomatoes and a little water to release any sticking potatoes and cook a few minutes more, until potatoes are tender. When ready to serve, top with cilantro.
