About the Recipe

Ingredients

  • 4 medium sweet potatoes

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted

  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

  • 1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme leaves

  • 1 garlic clove, finely grated on a microplane

  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

  • 6 tablespoons low fat Greek yoghurt

  • 1 spring onion, white and green parts chopped

Preparation

Step 1


Preheat the oven to 220°C. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.


Step 2


Make a series of 1/8-inch slices along each potato, slicing 2/3 of the way through.


Step 3


Stir together the butter, oil, thyme, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Rub the potatoes all over with the mixture, getting in between the slices.


Step 4


Place on the baking sheet and roast until the center of the potatoes are tender and the outside is crisp, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Halfway through the roasting time, remove the potatoes from the oven and run a fork gently across the tops of the potatoes, using light pressure, to fan the slices and separate them from one another.


Step 5


Meanwhile, stir the yogurt and spring onions with a pinch salt and a pinch pepper. Serve the sauce with the potatoes.
