Coriander Sweet Potatoes Food

SWEET POTATO AND CORIANDER MASH

Steps:

• Bring a large pan of lightly salted water to the boil.
• Peel and cube the potatoes and add to the pan with the garlic.
• Return to the boil and simmer for 15-20 minutes until tender.
• Add the coriander and cook for 10 seconds; drain well, then return to the pan.
• Set the pan over a gentle flame and stir with a wooden spoon for 1-2 minutes to evaporate any excess water, but be careful not to let the potatoes catch and burn on the bottom of the pan.
• Turn off the heat and mash well.
• Add the creme fraiche and some salt and pepper and mash together until smooth and creamy.
• Serve warm.

CORIANDER SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Mix the potatoes and oil in a large bowl. Season generously with the salt and pepper.
• 2. Arrange the potaotes in a single layer on a big, rimmed baking sheet. Roast until tender and brown, turning after about 35 minutes, for about 45 minutes total baking time.
• 3. Transfer to a large bowl. Toss with the coriander and cilantro and serve. Enjoy!

BAKED CORIANDER SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Place the sweet potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet. Pierce the potatoes a few times with the tip of knife and rub with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Roast, flipping halfway through, until the sweet potatoes are soft all the way through, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and allow to sit for 5 minutes.
• Cut the potatoes in half and fluff the inside with a fork. Drizzle each half with a tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle each half with a few coriander seeds, lemon zest and flake salt. Sprinkle with the parsley leaves to finish if desired.

CRISPY CORIANDER POTATOES

Steps:

• Throw the potatoes in a large pot, cover with room temperature water, and season with salt. Set on a high flame and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until a fork inserted into the potatoes draws out without resistance, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool. Once they're cool enough to handle, cut each potato into bite-size pieces.
• In a large skillet or wok, warm the oil until it's shimmering but not smoking. Add the fennel seeds; they should sizzle upon contact with the oil. Immediately add the potatoes, coriander, turmeric, thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir-fry until the potatoes get crispy and golden brown on the outside. Finish with the fresh cilantro and lime juice and serve.

CORIANDER DUCK WITH SWEET-POTATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Using a food processor, or by hand, finely chop the sweet potatoes. Transfer about a cup to a blender, add 1/2 cup water, and puree as finely as possible. Continue adding the potatoes until all are pureed. Place a fine-mesh strainer over a bowl, pour in the puree, and stir and press to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids, and allow the liquid to sit for 1 hour.
• Season the duck quarters with salt and pepper; refrigerate the breasts. Place a 14-inch nonstick or well-seasoned skillet over medium-high heat, and add 2 teaspoons of the oil. Sear the quarters until browned on all sides. Add the onions, celery and carrot, and stir until they have softened and are beginning to brown.
• Add the stock, and bring to boil. Reduce the heat to low. Simmer, partly covered, for 1 hour. Add the parsnips, and simmer until tender, about 1/2 hour more. Set the duck and parsnips aside on a plate. Place the fine-mesh strainer over a large bowl, and pour in the stock and remaining vegetables. Discard the solids. Return the stock to the skillet; over high heat, boil until it is reduced to 3/4 cup. Remove from the heat, and set aside.
• Place a small skillet over medium-low heat. Toast the coriander seeds, stirring, until fragrant, 30 to 60 seconds. Grind coarsely with mortar and pestle. Set aside.
• Pour the sweet-potato liquid into a small pan, discarding the thick starch at the bottom of the bowl. Take the duck breasts out of the refrigerator, and allow them to reach room temperature.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Spray two baking sheets with nonstick spray. Rub the parsnips with 1 teaspoon of the oil, and place on one sheet. Cover them with the other baking sheet, sprayed side down. Bake until the parsnips are browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Set the parsnips aside to cool, but keep the oven at 400 degrees.
• Prepare the sweet-potato sauce: Place the pan of sweet-potato juice over low heat, and bring to a simmer. Add the lemon zest. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has thickened; it should not taste starchy. Add the chili, lemon juice and ginger. Simmer 1 minute. Add the reduced stock, and salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat; cover to keep warm.
• Season the duck breasts with salt and pepper. Pat the tops with the ground coriander seeds, and sprinkle the other side with the parsley. Place a large oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat, and add the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil and the duck breasts, parsley side down. Sear for about 15 seconds, then turn to sear the other side. Add the duck quarters, then put the skillet into the hot oven. Roast until breasts are medium-rare, about 3 minutes. Remove the skillet from the oven, cover lightly with foil, and allow the duck to rest for 5 minutes.
• To serve, thinly slice the breasts, less than 1/8 inch thick, and halve parsnips lengthwise. Place a parsnip half on each of four plates. Fan the breast slices across the parsnip, and lean a duck quarter against the highest point. Drizzle with sauce.
