For the Potatoes

4 medium Sweet Potatoes The star of the dish, providing natural sweetness and a tender texture.

For the Flavor

4 tablespoons Unsalted Butter It imparts richness and flavor; substitute with olive oil for a vegan option.
2 tablespoons Fresh Rosemary For a fragrant touch; freshly chopped is best.
1 teaspoon Sea Salt Enhances the dish; adjust to taste for optimal flavor.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Slice about 1/4 to 1/2 inch off the bottom of each sweet potato to create a stable, flat base.
Make thin slices into each sweet potato, about 1/8 inch apart, stopping just before you reach the bottom.
Combine melted butter, chopped rosemary, and sea salt in a small bowl and stir gently.
Brush half of the butter mixture on the tops and between the slices of each sweet potato.
Bake for about 45-60 minutes, brushing with the remaining butter mixture halfway through.
Let the potatoes cool slightly before serving warm, optionally topped with additional herbs.

Enjoy immediately after baking for the best texture and flavor. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days.
