A batata is what most of the world knows as a sweet potato. Ingredients:
4 medium sweet potatoes (batatas, about 2 lb total) |
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened |
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice |
1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped |
2 teaspoons cumin seeds, toasted and cooled |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper |
Directions:
1. Wrap whole potatoes in 1 layer of foil.
2. Place in middle of a preheated 400°F oven.
3. Bake for 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours.
4. While batatas are roasting, stir together butter, lime juice, parsley, cumin, salt, and pepper in a small bowl with a fork until combined well.
5. Unwrap batatas carefully.
6. When cool enough to handle, peel and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick slices.
7. Season batatas with salt and pepper and serve with lime-cumin butter.
