Method

Honey Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Labneh 8 Steps

  • Step 1

    In a small bowl, mix the yogurt1 teaspoon salt and lemon zest.

  • Step 2

    Line a large sieve or colander with cheesecloth or a clean, thin dish cloth; set over a large bowl. Place the yogurt mixture in the colander. Gather edges of cheesecloth to cover yogurt. Place in refrigerator and let drain for 4-6 hours (longer if you want it to be thicker). If you are using Skyr, it is already pretty thick so you may not need to wait as long at 4-6 hours. For Skyr I have waited 1 hour with great results. 

  • Step 3

    Once you remove yogurt mixture from fridge, gently squeeze out any excess liquid over the sink, set aside. 

  • Step 4

    Heat oven to 375°F.

  • Step 5

    In a small bowl mix the honey, olive oil, cinnamon, ginger, salt and red pepper flakes. 

  • Step 6

    Toss the sweet potatoes in mixture.

  • Step 7

    Lay the sweet potatoes out on a rimmed baking dish in a single layer lined with parchment paper. Roast, tossing occasionally, for 35-40 minutes in oven or until tender. Drizzle with more olive oil.

  • Step 8

    Spread the labneh onto a plate and top with the roasted sweet potatoes. Drizzle with extra olive oil and sprinkle with parsley, chives and flakey sea salt to taste.
