This side dish takes minutes to get ready for the oven and only an hour to bake. Choose plump, round sweet potatoes-they cut handsomely into wedges. When they're done, they should be practically lacquered with the glaze. Ingredients:
1/4 cup water |
2 tablespoons brown sugar |
3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce |
2 tablespoons mirin (sweet rice wine) |
1 tablespoon dark sesame oil |
4 garlic cloves, minced |
3 sweet potatoes, each cut lengthwise into 4 wedges (about 2 pounds) |
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400°.
2. Combine first 6 ingredients; stir well with a whisk. Arrange potatoes in a single layer in a 13 x 9-inch baking dish. Pour soy sauce mixture over potatoes. Cover and bake at 400° for 50 minutes or until tender; baste with the soy sauce mixture. Bake, uncovered, an additional 10 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
