Cooking Instructions
- 1
Heat oven to 425. Cut the yams into wedges. Whisk together the honey, ½ tablespoon of paprika and crushed red-pepper flakes and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Put yam wedges in a large bowl, and toss them with the mixture. Let it sit for 10 minutes or so, tossing once or twice to coat, as the oven heats.
- 2
Transfer the yams to a foil-lined, rimmed baking sheet, season with salt and pepper and then bake until they are deeply caramelized around the edges and soft when pierced with a fork at their thickest part, approximately 30 to 35 minutes.
- 3
As the yams roast, combine the yogurt, lime juice and remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a small bowl, and whisk to combine, then season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
- 4
When the yams are done, transfer them to a serving platter, drizzle the yogurt over them and garnish with the remaining paprika, the scallions and some flaky sea salt if you have any.

Two of my grandparents were Lebanese so I grew up eating Middle Eastern food. This is my favorite way to eat yams. The recipe may not be strictly Lebanese but I feel it connects me to my roots.#sweet #potatoes #side #accompaniment #vegetable #starch #Thanksgiving #vegetarian#GlobalApron Ricardo -

This is technically 2 recipes since the chicken and veg are roasted separately. They work so well together I've partnered them up. The brined chicken is unbelievably moist and tender, while the veg is toasty and sweet. Robert Gonzal -

Roasted Carrots Roasted Carrots
After a food coma from Singapore's 54th Independence Day and a super long weekend, I decided to go back to my strict diet. I feel like I'm gaining weight. My strict diet consists of more greens and fruits, less meat and sugar plus at least 30 mins of workout daily. I still can't get over my carrot cake recipe. Especially the roasted carrots; I still can find the same beautiful shades of different colors of carrots at my local market, so why not do a separate recipe properly?I adore the smell of roasted garlic. Imagine the big smile on my face as soon as I pulled that outta the oven. The trick here is not to burn the garlic. I can use garlic powder and cheat my way thru' this recipe, but I love eating roasted garlic bits. So, how to not to screw this up? Keep a close eye on it when the aroma of roasted garlic permeates your kitchen. Pull the tray out, give the carrots a quick toss and check the garlic. If some are beginning to burn, remove them and place them separately in a bowl. Do not discard them. They are flavor bombs!My daughters surprisingly like this dish. As a parent, I know how difficult it is to get your kids to eat healthy greens and fruits. I had been trying all sorts of ways to get them to eat. I am glad that they devoured this plate of roasted carrots without any complaining. I really hope you will give this recipe a try and roast some lovely carrots for your kids. Daniel Lim -

Roasted Half Chicken with Chickpea and Gigande Hoppin' John Roasted Half Chicken with Chickpea and Gigande Hoppin' John
I really enjoy southern style cooking. It's comfort food at its best using a mixture of flavors for a guaranteed delicious result. In fact I have yet to come across a southern dish or recipe that didn't end with an empty plate.Hoppin' John is a classic southern recipe traditionally eaten on New Year's Day to bring a prosperous year filled with luck. The name has been given many different origin stories over the years however I always thought it was due to the abundant spices added into the seasoning causing the diner to "hop" from the heat. My version is more on the calm side. RodneyCarter -
Vickys Roasted Pepper & Pork Goulash, GF DF EF SF NF Vickys Roasted Pepper & Pork Goulash, GF DF EF SF NF
This recipe is really just a quicker stove top version of my oven paprika pork recipe. I've swapped the mushrooms and celery out for roasted peppers and the dish takes a third of the time to finish up, no compromise on the great flavour though. Vicky@Jacks Free-From Cookbook -
Roasted Ham with Honey Glaze Roasted Ham with Honey Glaze
I made this for Easter. When using sugar instead of honey to make the glaze, use 90 g of sugar, 2 tablespoons of water, and 10 g of honey Add the honey at the same time as the ingredients. The roast is delicious served with horseradish sauce: https://cookpad.wasmer.app/en/recipes/157588-horseradish-sauce-for-roasts . Recipe by LOVE. cookpad.japan -
Tangy Sweet Roasted Carrots Tangy Sweet Roasted Carrots
These are seasoned, roasted carrots. The quantities are approximate since I usually make this without a recipe, and created it over time. Feel free to play with the spices. The cooking time will vary with the shape and thickness of your carrot pieces. This can be served at any temperature, although I prefer it hot. It keeps well, so it can be made ahead and then reheated.I originally started making this with chopped onion and chopped garlic, but found those cooked differently than the carrots, and it made for a longer prep time. In my quest to create an simple, fast to prepare dish, I switched to using onion and garlic powder. I also used to chop and slice my carrots, but now buy either a bag of extra small baby carrots or sliced crinkle-cut carrots. Paula -

Roasted Fall Veggies Roasted Fall Veggies
I love to make seasonal roasted veggies on Sundays, and use them through the work week for all kinds of different recipes. I listed a few examples below, but there are sooo many more. I also like to use them for a roasted vegetable quiche, and a roasted vegetable ragout that is served over buttermilk parmesan grits (the whole thing comes together in less than 30 minutes, but tastes like it's been cooking all day!).Roasted veggies are a great way to clean out the fridge and use up all those veggies that are languishing in there! You can use almost any combination of veggies. In fact my photo of the recipe includes some radishes I threw in at the last minute. Roasting the radishes made then even more beautiful, and completely mellowed there flavor (I had no clue! I guess you never know till you try!). Funiscooking
