Ingredients

  • 0.3 teaspoon cayenne pepper 
  • 0.8 teaspoon madras curry powder 
  • 0.8 teaspoon kosher salt plus more for seasoning
  • 0.3 cup maple syrup pure
  • 0.3 cup olive oil extra-virgin
  • cups puffed grains mixed such as rice, wheat, corn and millet
  • small orange sweet potatoes yellow (small)
  • tablespoons butter unsalted

Equipment

  • bowl
  • baking sheet
  • oven

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 32
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil with the maple syrup, curry powder and cayenne and season with salt.
  3. Add the puffed grains and stir to coat.
  4. Spread in an even layer on a parchment paperlined baking sheet and bake, stirring twice, until lightly browned, about 20 minutes; the mix will crisp as it cools. Break up any big clumps.
  5. Halve the potatoes lengthwise and scoop out the flesh, leaving a thin wall of flesh on 4 of the halves. (Discard the remaining 4 empty shells.) Mash the potato flesh with the butter and season with salt. Spoon the mixture back into the shells and bake until hot, about 15 minutes.
  6. Transfer the potatoes to plates and sprinkle with some of the puffed grains.
  7. Serve right away, passing extra puffed grains at the table.
