Category: Fall | Difficulty: Easy
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup minced red onions
1 cup cubed sweet potatoes (1 small sweet potato, peeled and cut into
1/8-inch cubes)
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
A few drops balsamic vinegar
1. Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat until it is hot when you
hold you hand 3 inches away.
2. Add the oil and sauté the onions over high heat for 3 to 4 minutes,
until they brown. Add the sweet potatoes and cook a few minutes, stirring
constantly, until sweet potatoes are cooked through and lightly browned.
Turn off the heat, add the salt and pepper and a few drops of balsamic
vinegar.
A little mound of sautéed sweet potatoes on top of the risotto adds a
festive orange touch. For a beautiful presentation and delicate flavor, it¹s
important to cut the sweet potatoes uniformly into 1/8-inch pieces. These
can be prepared earlier in the day, or the day before serving, and placed in
a baking dish to warm before eating.
