Ingredients
- 4 medium sweet potatoes
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 jumbo yellow onion, halved and thinly sliced
- 1/2 tablespoon turmeric
- 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 1 cup halved red or black California grapes
- 2 tablespoons chopped toasted, salted pepitas
- 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
- 2 tablespoons chopped mint
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta
Preparation
- 1 Preheat oven to 400°F.
- 2 Pierce the potatoes all over with a fork, place on a foil-lined sheet pan and bake for 1 hour or until potatoes are tender. Alternatively, wrap the potatoes in damp paper towel and microwave 8-10 minutes or until soft.
- 3 While the potatoes are roasting, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until softened and lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Stir in the turmeric, vinegar and salt and pepper and cook 2 minutes longer. Stir in the grapes and turn off the heat.
- 4 When potatoes are done, cut off the top quarter of each potato, fluff the insides with a fork. Top with the onion mixture, pepitas, cilantro and mint and sprinkle with feta. Serve.
