PREPARATION FOR BAKED SWEET POTATO WITH GOAT CHEESE

  • Preheat The Oven: Set your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  • Prepare The Sweet Potatoes: Wash and peel the sweet potato if desired. Slice into ½-inch rounds, ensuring even thickness for consistent roasting.
  • Roast The Sweet Potatoes: Arrange the slices on the baking tray and roast for 15–20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and lightly caramelised.
  • Add The Goat Cheese: Once roasted, remove the sweet potato slices from the oven and let them cool slightly. Crumble the goat cheese evenly over each slice.
  • Drizzle With Honey: Using a small spoon, drizzle honey over the goat cheese to enhance the sweetness and balance the flavours.
  • Sprinkle With Walnuts: Finish by sprinkling the chopped walnuts on top for added crunch and texture.
  • Serve And Enjoy: Arrange on a serving plate and enjoy warm as a delicious appetiser or side dish.

TIPS FOR BAKED SWEET POTATO ROUNDS WITH GOAT CHEESE

  • Choose Small, Firm Sweet Potatoes: This ensures that the slices are evenly sized and cook uniformly.
  • Don’t Overcrowd The Tray: Spread the slices out to allow even roasting and avoid steaming.
  • Roast Until Golden: The edges should be slightly caramelised for the best flavour and texture.
  • Use Soft, Creamy Goat Cheese: A fresh, creamy goat cheese crumbles easily and melts slightly over the warm sweet potatoes.
  • Enhance Flavour With Seasoning: A pinch of sea salt or black pepper adds depth to the dish.
  • Add A Garnish For Presentation: Fresh thyme or rosemary sprigs make an elegant garnish.
  • Serve At Room Temperature If Needed: These rounds can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature, making them great for entertaining.

VARIATIONS

  • Savoury Twist: Replace honey with a balsamic glaze for a tangy, rich contrast.
  • Nut-Free Option: Omit walnuts or replace them with toasted pumpkin seeds for a crunch without nuts.
  • Spicy Version: Add a dash of chilli flakes or cayenne pepper for a subtle kick.
  • Dairy-Free Alternative: Use a dairy-free goat cheese substitute or mashed avocado for a creamy texture.
  • Herb-Infused: Sprinkle with fresh thyme, rosemary, or basil for added aroma.
  • Extra Crunch: Use crushed pecans or almonds instead of walnuts for a different nutty texture.
  • Sweet And Smoky: Add a pinch of smoked paprika for a smoky depth that complements the honey.
  • Citrus Enhancement: Drizzle with a little orange or lemon zest for a fresh, citrusy finish.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Refrigeration: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven at 180°C (350°F) for 5 minutes before serving.
  • Freezing: Freezing is not recommended, as the texture of roasted sweet potatoes can become too soft when thawed.
  • Make-Ahead: Roast the sweet potato slices in advance and store them in the fridge. Assemble with goat cheese, honey, and walnuts just before serving.
