Sweet potatoes slices are layered on a white baking potato and roasted until golden brown--an elegant and delicious side dish.
 

Ingredients

  • 8 large Idaho potatoes, about 8 oz each
  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and thickly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves
 
Method

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Carefully slice each potato thickly crosswise being careful not to cut all the way through. Insert sweet potato slices randomly between slices made in potatoes (each potato should hold an equal number of sweet potato slices). Place potatoes on microwave safe dish and cover loosely with waxed paper. Microwave on high for 15 minutes. Transfer potatoes to baking pan. Drizzle oil between slices. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast in oven, uncovered, 25 minutes or until lightly browned. Place potatoes on serving platter. Sprinkle with basil and serve immediately.

 

Notes: Baked Accordian Potato Duo makes a lovely presentation, but takes little time to prepare--nutritious and delicious.

 

Number of Servings: Eight.
