Although Hasselback-style baking is most often used with potatoes, the same effect can be achieved with sweet potatoes. Make numerous, deep, frequent cuts into the potato, creating an accordion-like appearance. This will make the long sweet potato look even more striking. To avoid accidentally damaging the accordion, place chopsticks or the handle of a wooden spoon against the potato before slicing to support the knife. Drizzle the sweet potato with herbed oil, pouring it into the cuts, and bake in the oven. Serve with a simple yogurt sauce with green onions. It perfectly complements the sweet and spicy flavor of the sweet potato.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 220°C. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  2. Make slits 0.3 cm apart along the length of each potato, cutting down 2/3 of the way. In a small bowl, combine the butter, olive oil, thyme, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Rub the sweet potato with the mixture, working it into the slits.

  3. Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and bake until the inside is tender and the outside is crisp, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Halfway through baking, remove the potatoes from the oven and gently run a fork over the tops, fanning out the slices.
  4. Meanwhile, mix the yogurt with green onions, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of pepper. Serve the sauce with the sweet potatoes.
