Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 pounds sweet potatoes (4 to 5), scrubbed and cut crosswise into 1-inch slices
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
1 teaspoon champagne vinegar
Flaky sea salt, such as Maldon, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot fitted with a steamer basket with enough water to come just below basket; bring to a boil. Add potatoes; reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until fork-tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Divide potatoes between 2 rimmed baking sheets; lightly mash using a metal spatula. Drizzle with oil. Season with 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt, pepper to taste, and thyme. Slide potatoes around on sheet to coat bottoms with oil.
  • Roast, rotating sheets once, until skins are golden and crisp, about 25 minutes. Transfer to a platter. Drizzle with vinegar, sprinkle with flaky salt, and serve.
