I understand that roasting sweet potatoes with pears makes for a
delectable dish. Has anyone ever heard of this? Any recipes
appreciated.


Roasted Pears and Sweet Potatoes

Serves 4; Prep time: 15 minutes; Total time: 45 minutes

2 sweet potatoes, sliced 1 1/2 inches thick
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
Coarse salt
2 Bartlett pears, cored, quartered, and halved

Preheat oven to 400°. Scrub 2 sweet potatoes. Quarter lengthwise;
slice diagonally 1 1/2 inches thick. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss slices
with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon dry mustard, 1/2 teaspoon ground
ginger, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne; season with coarse salt. Roast, tossing
occasionally, until crisp-tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
Core and quarter 2 Bartlett pears; halve crosswise. Add to the
potatoes; toss all with another tablespoon oil. Continue roasting until
potatoes are fork-tender, about 10 minutes more.
