Description

Delicious Thai peanut butter sauce sweet potatoes topped with fresh slaw and crushed peanuts.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium to large sweet potatoes (10 to 12 ounces each)
  • 1/4 red cabbage (3 cups shredded)
  • 1/2 red bell pepper
  • 1/2 yellow bell pepper
  • 1 green onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (1 lime)
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Crushed peanuts, for the garnish
  • 1/3 cup peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice (1 lime)
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons water

Instructions

  1. Go to Instant Pot Sweet Potatoes, Steamed Sweet Potatoes, or Quick Baked Sweet Potatoes.
  2. Thinly slice the red cabbage, enough for 3 cups. Thinly slice the peppers. Thinly slice the green onion. Chop the cilantro.
  3. In a large bowl, mix together the cabbage, peppers, green onion and cilantro with the lime juice and kosher salt.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, maple syrup, and water. Taste and add a bit of kosher salt if desired (this depends on the salt content of the peanut butter).
