Why This Recipe Is So Delicious

These spuds have a unique smoky flavor that comes from the cedar infusion, making them stand out from regular roasted potatoes. They are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, creating a perfect texture combination. Plus, the subtle woodsy aroma adds a cozy, comforting touch to any meal.

Chef Tips

- Soak the cedar plank in water for at least an hour before cooking to prevent it from burning.
- Use uniform potato sizes for even cooking and consistent texture.
- Finish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme to enhance the natural flavors.

Directions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). While it’s warming up, rub half a teaspoon of butter all over your soaked cedar plank to keep things from sticking. Take a paring knife and poke a few holes into each sweet potato, about half an inch deep. Pop the potatoes in the microwave on high for 8 to 10 minutes, or until they’re nice and soft. Once they’re cool enough to handle, peel them and toss the flesh into a bowl. Add in 2 tablespoons of butter, 2 tablespoons of Parmesan, some yogurt, and roasted garlic, then mash everything together until it’s smooth and creamy. Pile the mashed potatoes onto the cedar plank, spreading them out a bit. Bake in the oven for about 30 minutes, until the top turns a lovely golden brown. When they come out, drizzle with a tablespoon of melted butter, season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle on parsley, chopped onion, paprika, and the remaining Parmesan before serving.

Best Serving Ideas

These potatoes pair wonderfully with grilled meats or roasted vegetables. Try serving them alongside a fresh green salad or a tangy dipping sauce like garlic aioli. They also make a great side for casual gatherings or holiday meals.

How To Store Leftovers

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat gently in the oven to retain crispiness instead of using the microwave. Avoid freezing, as the texture may become mushy once thawed.

Pretty good, took me a couple tries to get the timing right. Might try a different seasoning next time but the cedar idea is cool.
