Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ lb Sweet Potatoes try to stick to similarly sized spuds
  • ¼ C Olive Oil
  • ¼ C Maple Syrup
  • ¼ C Harissa Paste or less, depending on your heat tolerance
  • Kosher Salt and Pepper to taste
  • 1-2 tablespoon Dukkah

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400F.
  • Thinly slice (⅛") sweet potatoes using a mandoline or sharp chef's knife.
  • Mix together olive oil, harissa and maple syrup. Toss sweet potato slices with ¾ of the sauce, salt and pepper, reserving ¼ sauce for brushing tian during baking.
  • Arrange potatoes in casserole dish by layering slices around the edges of the plate and working inward.
  • Roast at 400F for about an hour, stopping every 15 minutes to brush the top of the tian with more sauce. When slices are beginning to catch some color, remove from the oven, sprinkle with dukkah and serve warm. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Use ½ as much harissa paste for a milder tian.
  • Any maple syrup will work as long as it is pure maple syrup.
  • Dukkah is optional, but gives an excellent crunch.
