Posted On: 2024-05-24 12:51:34

Ingredients:

500g yams

2 tablespoons oil

2 tablespoons runny honey (or pure maple syrup)

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

extra 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar and 1 tablespoon honey or pure maple syrup for drizzle

handful of chopped parsley to garnish

FETA WHIP:

200g feta cheese, crumbled

1 cup (250g) cream cheese, softened, or Greek yoghurt

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 tablespoon lemon zest

Directions:

Heat the oven to 200°C.

Place yams in a bowl with oil, honey and balsamic vinegar.

Toss to coat the yams and spread into a large roasting dish or baking tray with sides in a single layer.

Roast for 30–40 minutes until golden brown all over, turning twice during cooking.

Remove from the roasting dish and spoon any leftover marinade into a small bowl.

While the yams are cooking, make the feta whip.

Put feta cheese, cream cheese, lemon juice and zest into a medium bowl.

Blend together with an electric beater until smooth and creamy.

Alternatively, place the ingredients into a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.

Mix the extra tablespoons of balsamic vinegar and honey with the marinade reserved from the roasting dish, to create a drizzle.

Serve the yams either with, or over, the feta whip, drizzled with the marinade and sprinkled with chopped parsley.
