Dukkah Sweet Potato Salad Recipes

EGYPTIAN DUKKAH RECIPE

Steps:

• Place the hazelnuts and almonds in a dry cast iron pan (do NOT add oil). Toast briefly over medium-high heat, tossing regularly, until the nuts gain some color (watch for nuts to turn a nice golden brown). Transfer to a side dish for now.
• Place the sesame seeds in the same skillet and return to the heat. Toast over medium heat, tossing regularly, until the sesame seeds turn golden brown (this will be fairly quick so watch carefully).
• Add the toasted nuts and sesame seeds to the bowl of a small food processor fitted with a blade. Add the pistachios, fennel seeds, spices, and a generous dash of kosher salt. Pulse for a few seconds until you reach a nice coarse mixture (Do not over process the dukkah. The mixture should not be too fine. See photos and video for exact texture).
• Transfer the dukkah to a bowl to serve. Add a small bowl of extra virgin olive oil and your favorite bread for dipping (I like pita bread or even Jerusalem bagel). You can also store the dukkah in a tight-lid jar for up to 2 weeks to use as a topping for salad, soup, chicken, meats, or roasted vegetables!

CARIBBEAN SWEET POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Place the Russet potato pieces into a large saucepan, and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil, turn the heat down, and simmer for 10 minutes. Add the sweet potato, and cook about 15 minutes more. Remove a piece of each potato, and cut it in half to see if it is cooked enough. Once the potatoes are tender, add corn kernels; cook another 30 seconds. Drain through a colander. Fill the saucepan with cold water, and drop vegetables into water. Cool for 5 minutes, and drain.
• In a large bowl, whisk together mustard, lime juice, cilantro, and garlic. Slowly whisk in oil. Mix in salt and black pepper.
• Cut cooled potatoes into 1 inch cubes, and add to dressing along with cucumber, and red onion. Toss well. Serve at room temperature or chilled. Toss the peanuts in just before serving.

MOLOKAI SWEET POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• In a medium pot, cover the potatoes with salted water and bring to a boil. Cook until just fork-tender, about 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and refresh under cold running water.
• When cool, combine the potatoes, pineapple, onion, and bell pepper in a large bowl.
• In the bowl of a blender, combine the egg and lime juice. With the machine running on high speed, add the vegetable oil in a slow, steady stream. When all the oil has been added and the mixture is thickened, add the soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, salt, and cayenne, and process 30 seconds to combine. Pour the mayonnaise over the potato mixture and toss well to combine. Add the cilantro and toss again. Cover tightly and refrigerate for 1 hour to allow the flavors to marry.

THE BEST SWEET POTATO POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix together the cornichons or relish, mustard, honey, celery, lemon zest and juice and red onion. Season with salt and pepper and let sit while the potatoes cook.
• Put the potatoes in a large saucepan and add enough cold water to cover by 1 inch. Season the water generously with salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes.
• Drain the potatoes in a colander, put back in the saucepan, add the vinegar and, using a rubber spatula, toss gently to combine.
• Add the mayonnaise, chives and parsley to the celery-onion mixture and stir to combine. Add the warm potatoes to the dressing and toss. Season to taste. Garnish with extra chives and parsley.
