Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
Letʼs prepare everything you need to cook sweet potatoes. In the recipe I used store-bought finely grated Parmesan cheese and frozen herbes de Provence. Wash the sweet potato very thoroughly with a brush or sponge to remove all dirt since we will not peel the peel, we will bake it along with it.

Step 2

Step 2
Dry the sweet potatoes with paper towels and cut into long, but not very thick, sticks. The tuber itself is very dense, so it is better to use a thin and sharp knife (be careful not to get hurt!).

Step 3

Step 3
Prepare the sauce. In a deep small plate, mix soy sauce and vegetable oil. Add a pinch of nutmeg, Italian herbs and garlic pressed through a garlic press. I add another pinch of salt, even though the soy sauce itself is salty, since the sweet potato is very sweet. Mix everything well.

Step 4

Step 4
Add sauce to sweet potatoes.

Step 5

Step 5
Using a spoon or your hands, mix everything so that the soy sauce is evenly distributed throughout all the slices. If you mix with your hands, I recommend using rubber disposable gloves, since if you have wounds on your hands, they may begin to tingle when the salty sauce gets into them.

Step 6

Step 6
Line a baking dish with baking paper. Place the potato slices at a short distance from each other. Cover the baking sheet with foil and place the sweet potato in a preheated oven at 200 degrees for 30 minutes (top-bottom mode).

Step 7

Step 7
Remove the foil, sprinkle the top of the sweet potatoes with Parmesan and return to the oven for 5 minutes. If possible, change the mode to “convection” so that the cheese and potatoes brown.

Step 8

Step 8
The sweet potato is ready, ready to serve! I sprinkle the finished dish with a little more cheese and herbs.
