Harissa lends both a spiciness and an earthiness to this savory sweet potato dish. We promise you won’t miss the marshmallows.

Ingredients
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F. Whisk ⅔ cup oil, ⅔ cup harissa, and 1 Tbsp. vinegar in a large bowl to combine. Slice sweet potatoes crosswise on a mandoline ⅛" thick. Add to bowl with harissa mixture and toss to coat; season with salt.
Step 2
Arrange sweet potatoes so they are standing upright in concentric circles in a 2-qt. baking dish, packing tightly, and roast, brushing any accumulated harissa oil in dish onto sweet potatoes every 10–15 minutes, until soft and starting to brown on top, about 1 hour.
Step 3
Meanwhile, toss pistachios, sesame seeds, and fennel seeds on a small rimmed baking sheet. Toast alongside sweet potatoes until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Let cool, then transfer to spice mill or mortar and pestle and coarsely grind. Set dukkah aside.
DO AHEAD: Dukkah can be made 3 days ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.
Step 4
Whisk remaining 2 Tbsp. oil, 2 Tbsp. harissa, and 1 Tbsp. vinegar in a small bowl. Remove sweet potatoes from oven and brush with oil mixture. Sprinkle with reserved dukkah.

Back to TopRecipe box no longer useful. Where are the folders that made using so simple? Please go back to what it once was.

Unrelated to this recipe, but to the last three reviewers... the Epicurious app still allows you to search through your recipe box. I recommend using that to find recipes instead of slogging through the awful new list on desktops.

I have the same questions as Cassandra. Our recipe box is no longer easy to use.

Why can't I add recipes to my recipe box anymore? And why is the recipe box just a long list that is NOT searchable?

This recipe was delicious and I’ll definitely be making again. Was easily reheatable for a second serving without ruining the texture. The earthy nut topping really compliment the potatoes, I did however not put the full amount of harissa in because it did seem like it might overwhelm the contrast of the flavors but I now feel like it would have been fine. I will use full boar next round.
