Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Peel and thinly slice sweet potatoes on a mandoline; set aside. Heat heavy cream in a saucepan over medium heat, and add the cheese so it slowly melts into the cream. Mix in brown sugar, salt, and red pepper flakes; bring to a low simmer to incorporate all of the ingredients, 5-10 minutes. Butter the baking dish and evenly layer a quarter of the sweet potatoes along the bottom, then lightly sprinkle with salt.
• When the sauce is ready, pour a quarter of it over the sweet potatoes. Repeat the potato/sauce layering three more times until all of the ingredients are in the baking dish. Cover with foil and cook for 40 minutes. Remove foil and broil to brown the top, 5 minutes. Let sit for 10 minutes before serving.

SWEET POTATO AND GOAT CHEESE GRATIN WITH BLACK OLIVES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. If you are using an aluminum baking sheet, cover the bottom with parchment paper or Silpat, so that the potatoes won't discolor and turn brown while baking. If you are using a ceramic or stainless-steel baking sheet, you don't need to cover the bottom. Slice each sweet potato in half, lengthwise, and place face down on the tray. Bake until they are soft, about 35 to 45 minutes. Remove and allow to cool.
• Increase the heat in the oven to 400 degrees, place the pitted olives on a small baking sheet, and bake until they become hard and brittle, about 20 to 25 minutes.
• While the olives are baking, place a medium-size sauté pan with a heavy bottom over medium heat. Add the butter and brown it until it turns a hazelnut color and has a nutty fragrance, about 5 to 6 minutes. Add the chopped shallots and allow to cook for about 3 minutes until translucent. Be careful not to burn the butter.
• When the sweet potatoes are cool, scoop out the insides and place in a bowl. Pour the butter and shallot mixture over the sweet potatoes, and mix. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, going lightly on the salt since the olives, which are added at the end, are salty. Place the sweet potato mix in a baking dish so that the sweet potatoes are one-inch thick. Spread the creamy goat cheese, in shallow dollops, over the sweet potatoes so that the sweet potatoes are clearly visible, at the edges and elsewhere. Bake at 400 degrees until the cheese and potatoes start to brown in some spots, about 15 minutes. The gratin won't brown like a traditional potato gratin; the colors of the sweet potatoes and the goat cheese will still be very present, but the goat cheese will turn beige, and the potatoes will begin to brown a bit.
• Once the olives are cool, chop them finely, and mix with the olive oil and the chopped basil. Spoon the olive mixture over the sweet potatoes and serve.

GRATIN OF SWEET POTATOES

• Season potatoes and cream with salt and Cayenne pepper. Spread mixture in baking dish, sprinkle with cheese and remaining bread crumbs, and dot with rest of butter. Bake 30 minutes, until lightly browned.
