Roasted Sweet Potato with Apple Butter

1. Preheat a convection oven to 400°F. on high fan.

2. Perforate the sweet potato with a fork to allow steam to escape.

4. Bake in for 30 minutes or until the potato is just cooked through (soft to the touch).

5. Allow the potato to cool completely under refrigeration inside the foil.

To prepare à la carte:

1. Heat a convection oven to 350°F. on high fan and set a broiler/salamander to high.

3. Roast, cut-side up to retherm the sweet potatoes in a small saute pan at 350°F. on high fan for 5 minutes.

4. Remove from the oven and drizzle the tahini and honey on top of each side. Brush with a pastry brush to evenly coat.
