HASSELBACK SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Shave a thin sliver from one side of each potato to give it a flat surface to stand on while you slice it. Make thin slices into the potato about 1/16-inch thick, stopping before you cut all the way through. (Placing a chopstick on either side of the potato while you slice it can help stop the blade before it cuts all the way through.) Put each potato on a separate sheet of foil. Shape the foil around the potatoes to wrap them, but leave the tops open and exposed. Put the potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium-high heat, swirling occasionally, until browned and nutty, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and salt. Drizzle the butter mixture over the potatoes and pinch the foil together on top to seal the potato inside. Bake for 45 minutes, then let cool for a few moments. Remove the potatoes from the foil, put them on a serving platter and drizzle with the sauce leftover in each foil packet. Sprinkle with the pecans before serving.

GARLICKY HASSELBACK SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Pour 1 tablespoon olive oil into a large cast-iron skillet, swirl it so it coats the whole pan, then put it in the oven while you cut the potatoes.
• Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise, place cut side down on a cutting board, then use a knife to make 1/8-inch slices on a slight bias from the top to the bottom of the potato half. Cut almost all of the way through the potato, stopping before you reach the bottom. (A serrated knife makes the job easier. You can also lay chopsticks down on either side of the potato to keep the knife from slipping through the potato.)
• Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and nestle the sweet potato halves inside in a single layer. Drizzle the top of each with 1/2 teaspoon olive oil, sprinkle with salt, then bake for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the butter to a small pot with 1 teaspoon salt. Grate the garlic into the pot with a microplane, then heat over low until the butter is melted.
• Take the sweet potatoes out of the oven and, keeping in mind that the pan is hot, use a fork or offset spatula to gently pry the slices apart so that there's more room between each one. Use a brush to generously coat the potatoes with garlic butter (the more you get inside the slices, the better). Reserve any excess.
• Bake for an additional 10 minutes. For extra crisp edges, broil potatoes for 2 to 4 minutes, until the ruffles are charred. Brush with reserved garlic butter, and serve.

HASSELBACK SWEET POTATO WITH PECAN STREUSEL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place sweet potato on a cutting board. Place a chopstick on either side. Cut the sweet potato into 1/8-inch-thick slices, making sure you don't cut all the way through. Transfer to a baking pan.
• Mix melted butter, maple syrup, cinnamon, and vanilla extract together. Spoon over the sweet potato.
• Bake in the preheated oven until tender, 45 to 60 minutes.
• Using your hands, make streusel by combining 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons brown sugar, pecans, flour, butter, and salt. Keep refrigerated until ready to use.
• Remove the sweet potato from the oven and sprinkle streusel over the top. Place in the broiler until streusel starts to brown, 1 to 3 minutes.

HASSELBACK SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Preheat the oven to 425 F.
• Line a baking dish or rimmed baking sheet with foil and then brush the foil with olive oil or butter.
• Scrub the sweet potatoes. Leave the peels on or peel them. If the potato is very round and rolls easily, cut a small slice off the bottom so it will be stable and won't roll as you make the cuts.
• Place the sweet potato on a cutting board and put a wooden spoon against each long side so the potato is surrounded by the spoon handles. This will make it much easier to make the slices without cutting through. Or use a pair of chopsticks (thick ends). With a large, sharp knife, carefully cut the potatoes, making the slices about 1/8 to 1/4-inch apart. Make sure to cut straight down, and keep the potato within the spoon handles. Repeat with the remaining potatoes.
• Arrange the sweet potatoes in the prepared baking pan and brush with about half of the melted butter. Sprinkle them lightly with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Bake the sweet potatoes for 10 minutes. Brush the sweet potatoes with more butter and then continue baking-brushing and basting every 10 minutes-for about 50 to 60 minutes or until they are tender.
• While the sweet potatoes are baking, toast the walnuts. Spread the nuts out in a dry skillet and place it over medium heat. Cook until the nuts are lightly toasted and aromatic, stirring constantly. Remove to a plate to stop the cooking process.
• Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven and drizzle them with some maple syrup and then sprinkle with the toasted nuts. Make sure to get some between the slices.
• Return the sweet potatoes to the oven and bake for about 5 minutes longer.
• Serve immediately.
