Instructions
- 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 2
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into 1-inch cubes. In a bowl, toss the sweet potato cubes with a pinch of salt and pepper.
~5 min - 3
Spread the sweet potato cubes on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until fork-tender and lightly browned.
~25 min - 4
While the sweet potatoes are roasting, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the white miso paste, maple syrup, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and grated ginger until smooth.
~3 min - 5
Once the sweet potatoes are tender, remove them from the oven. Add the shelled edamame to the baking sheet with the sweet potatoes.
- 6
Drizzle the miso glaze over the sweet potatoes and edamame. Toss gently to coat everything evenly.
~2 min - 7
Return the baking sheet to the oven for another 5-7 minutes, or until the glaze is slightly caramelized and sticky.
~7 min - 8
Allow the mixture to cool slightly. Thread the glazed sweet potato cubes and edamame onto skewers, alternating them.
~5 min - 9
Serve immediately.
Tips
- For a deeper caramelization, you can briefly broil the skewers for the last 1-2 minutes, watching them very closely to prevent burning.
- These skewers are best served warm but can be enjoyed at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
