This is a wonderful and satisfying side dish to have with pork chops or even with a nice roasted chicken. The fresh rosemary and the whole garlic cloves add a nice earthy taste to the potatoes that match perfectly with the sweetness of the vegetable.
- 3 medium sized sweet potatoes, sliced into 1" discs
- 1 tbsp of fresh rosemary, chopped
- 6-8 whole garlic cloves (do not peel the skin until you're ready to serve)
- 1/2 tsp coarse salt
- freshly cracked black pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Preheat the oven to 425 F and then take a medium sized casserole dish and add in your sliced sweet potatoes. Put in the whole garlic cloves as well and make sure not to peel the outer skin. Drizzle them with olive oil and then add the rosemary and the other seasonings. Combine all of the ingredients with your hands and bake it in the oven on the centre rack. Bake it for about 40 minutes but make sure to take it out half way and toss it with a pair of tongs to ensure even baking. Serve with pork or chicken. The garlic cloves should easily come out of it's outer skin when it has finished baking.
