There are many ways to prepare sweet potatoes, just like carrots. You can enjoy them raw, cooked, fried, or out of the oven like in this recipe. They’re not only delicious, but also a great source of beta-carotene, which helps raise the vitamin A level in our blood. Adding just a little fat helps to extract the beta-carotene even more. This recipe I created as a side dish for my Wild Christmas Menu where it accompanies a delicious Fillet of Venison on Sweet Potato Gratin, Brussels Sprouts, Red Wine Shallots, and Juniper Berry Foam. The slightly sweet nutty flavor of the sweet potato combined with intense thyme flavor goes very well with it.
