SIDE DISH: Caramelized onions and sweet potatoes

Here’s a different veggie side dish when you’re in the good for something sweet and salty. No need to add sugar, the sweet potatoes and red onions have enough! #sidedish #sweetpotatoes #caramelizedonions #onionsandpotatoes

2025/2/12 Edited to

Caramelized onions and sweet potatoes create a unique flavor combination that enhances any meal. Start by slicing three large onions and cooking them in a cast iron skillet over medium heat with some oil or butter until they soften and caramelize. Next, prepare four to five medium sweet potatoes, slicing them into even chunks to ensure even cooking. Add the sweet potatoes to the skillet with a generous amount of salt. If the veggies begin to dry out before the sweet potatoes are fully cooked, don't hesitate to add a splash of broth along with a pat of butter to keep them moist and flavorful. For an extra touch, consider topping this dish with crumbled feta cheese for a savory finish. Alternatively, a lemon yogurt sauce can provide a refreshing touch that balances out the sweetness of the potatoes and onions, making it perfect for summer gatherings or festive dinners.

A basket of red onions, whole yellow onions, a halved red onion, and a knife on a cutting board, illustrating how Italians cut onions and its impact on flavor.

Roasted whole onions with their skins on, described as 'Sweet & Slow,' best for broths, stews, and stock bases, retaining moisture and natural sweetness.

Halved, caramelized onions, labeled 'Mild & Caramelizable,' ideal for roasting, grilling, and stews, holding structure and deepening flavor.

Italians don’t cry over onions. They cut smarter.

Think an onion is just an onion? Not in Italian cooking and definitely not if you want flavor, texture, and tears that are worth it. In Italy, the way you slice an onion can change your entire dish — from a delicate soffritto to a rich caramelized base. Cut it wrong and your risotto gets bitter
