Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Peel and cut sweet potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes. Place on a baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tsp sesame oil, and toss to coat evenly. Season with 1/4 tsp salt and roast for 15 minutes.
  2. Step 2: While potatoes roast, remove tough stems from kale and tear into bite-sized pieces. In a small bowl, whisk miso paste, maple syrup, rice vinegar, and 1 tbsp water until smooth. Add kale and toss until evenly coated.
  3. Step 3: After 15 minutes, remove potatoes from oven and add kale to the sheet pan. Toss everything together and roast for 12-15 more minutes until potatoes are tender and kale is crisp at the edges.
  4. Step 4: Remove from oven, sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and 1 tsp sesame seeds. Serve immediately while hot.
