Ingredients

  • 2-3 Sweet Potatoes sliced into thin matchsticks
  • 1 Tablespoon Dried Oregano
  • 1 Tablespoon Garlic Powder
  • 2 Teaspoons Salt
  • 1 Teaspoon Smoked Paprika
  • 1 Cup Kimchi
  • 2 Tablespoons Kimchi Juice divided
  • 2-4 Tablespoons Maple Syrup to taste
  • ¾ Cup Non-Dairy Greek Style Yogurt
  • 1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
  • For topping: Sliced Radishes, Scallions, Cilantro, etc.

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, toss the sweet potatoes with the oregano, garlic powder, salt, smoked paprika, and 1 tablespoon of the kimchi juice.
  • Arrange the sweet potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet. Bake for 30-40 minutes, stirring halfway through. The sweet potatoes are done when they are soft and starting to brown.
  • Meanwhile, heat the kimchi and maple syrup in a non-stick pan over medium heat until the kimchi is reduced, about 10 minutes. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, mix the non-dairy yogurt, remaining tablespoon of kimchi juice, and lemon juice. Set aside.
  • When the sweet potatoes are cooked, top with the kimchi mixture and drizzle with the yogurt sauce and your desired toppings. Enjoy!
