Carla as a veggie and a sweet potato freak I appreciate this so much and want to cook them all. Your meat free recipes are truly great, thanks for putting as much care into them as the meaty ones. Also those Japanese sweet potatoes will keep us all looking glowing and hydrated forever:)
I’ve never been a fan of sweet potatoes because they’re always served with more sweet stuff! You’ve actually got me excited to try sweet potatoes again! 🤩
same! I became convinced though when i made Sweet potato + Feta + crunchy roasted nuts + tahini/lemon dressing with lentils one time. You need a lot of acid, crunch, salt and bitterness to bring back the balance from the sweet potato but then when you do it's super nice : D
I used air fried sweet potatoes to go with Carla's winter soup recipe th-cam.com/video/PL0uV1sdWl8/w-d-xo.html instead of the meat back when I thought I was a vegetarian. It was SO delicious.
I steamed the potatoes for the first time and made the one with the seedy nut mix. It was so good and husband was impressed! Making the lentil, yogurt one next. We love you, Carla!
I made the tahini butter and the brown butter butter seedy mix with egg this week. I’m not allowed butter so used oil and both were still amazingly delicious. Thanks for rescuing my potentially boring weeknight dinner. ❤❤❤
I think the first two sweet potato dishes also deserve a nice crispy sunny side up on top. Also, the colours. Super inviting and I love sweet potatoes.
I’ve never been a huge fan of sweet potatoes but I will 100% be making all three of these in the near future. I can’t wait to try all the tangy toppings! Brilliant as always, Carla!
Just brilliant. Of all the veg out there, and I mean pretty much all, except for okra, this one seems to be the one we never make. Thanks for demystifying and imbuing confidence.
Also a veggie lover here! You have shown us the light Carla 😭 My partner is obsessed with sweet potaloes, but I’ve had a such a hard time getting over the single note of sweetness. Can’t wait to try these toppings! ^O^
For the Tahini Lime Butter, I put the butter in the microwave till it was about 75% melted, then stirred in the rest of the ingredients. It looks too liquid at first, but as it cools it gets a lovely texture. Way easier than all of that "bashing" you were doing. I didn't have any sweet potatoes, but I put it on a roasted Carnival squash and it was to die for!
OMG, I just made and devoured the version with lentil/herb/yogurt topping. Deeeeelicious! So good. Adding it to my list of Carla staple recipes (pasta e fagiole, gochujang salmon bowl, green beans and tofu, the list goes on.) Thank you, Carla, you are the best.
Well another genius recipe! I love this recipe so much, especially the #3 option I mashed the sweets and added the mixture on top with the fried egg 🍳 just yuuumz
These are probably the recipes I've made the most since they were first posted on Patreon. My favorite way to cook sweet potatoes! Tahini butter is also good with lemon and a bunch of herbs instead of soy and sesame oil, for a mix-up. It's a really nice side for some white fish, also.
Im gonna try a three of these. So approachable and quick. I went to cooking school and sometimes that means my meals get overly complicated and complex and then im ewting dinner at like 11pm lol. These were great recipes
Love everything about this. My husband loves growing sweet potatoes every year but we don’t always know how to enjoy them 🙃 Making these tonight! Why did I ever get away from steaming….🤔
At the start of this video I was thinking…there is no way to make a sweet potato taste good. But as always you have balanced the flavors, texture and umami, in your recipes. Thank you for including substitutes for flavors/seasonings. Recently organizing our seasoning cabinet, I really cannot buy another obscure item to be used for one meal. Can’t wait to try all your sweet potato enhancements!
I love roasted sweet potatoes, and I also use them a lot in soups and stews, but never thought that steaming them whole would work. This week I got smaller sweet potatoes from the market and I steamed a few of them today. It worked! Half an hour on the stove and they were all nice and soft. They’re not as flavourful as roasted, but for a quicker and more economical meal it’s perfect 👍🏻
Another great sweet potato recipe is the japanese sweet potato, cut length wise and cut into wedges, skins on. Season with salt, pepper, avocado oil and S & B curry seasoning (or one that is more savory leaning than sweet). Roasted those till they were soft and they are great as a snack or a side for dinner but it’s the breakfast spin that is chef’s kiss. Cut the slices down further, kind of like American fries/ hash from a diner. Crisped them up in a pan and then cracked in a couple of eggs; salt and pepper served sunny side up. It was the best meal I had all week.
Number 3 is going to be SUCH a hit at brunch, love finding new ways to deal with sweet potatoes! Soy braised in bibimbap is my current standout but these might be contenders
This all looks yummy but I need to take a second to recognize how amazing you look in this video. Idk if it’s the the white jean, gold herringbone necklace, loose curls vibe but sick look!
Calra and team! What if there was just a full-length audio recording of each episode. How long would those be? I think the verbal instructions and all the tool-to-bowl clinks and grinder cranks and obvs the knife "tchhsk"s would be a really delightful podcast or something. You're doing great!
ngl im a basic girl so my reccomendation is sweet potato with steamed tofu, soy sauce, & sesame seeds or sweet potato with almond butter and maple syrup
In sync, my partner and I say something along the lines of “now that’s a good pepper grinder” every time it makes an appearance. I’d love to get it for him for our anniversary, drop the link please girl!
Carla, or anyone: do you know what brand her pepper grinder is? I know she must’ve mentioned it before and its probably like a gazillion dollars but it just seems like such a good one 😭
Is the written recipe only available for paid subscribers on sub stack? I watched the whole video and loved it, but the ingredients list is only on screen?
Hi! The recipe for the tahini butter is in my book, Where Cooking Begins, but it was also published on Bon Appetit and in the NY Times Magazine, so you can find that one online. As for the other two, they are on my Substack and linked in the video description but you can go straight there: carlalallimusic.substack.com

Hands up if you've steamed sweet potatoes before!

Yep, and then topped off that purple cutie with spicy eggplant 🍆 for the yin and yang.

another veggie here that appreciates these thoughtful recipes so much!!
You have opened my eyes (and taste-buds) to sweet potatoes like never before. The tahini butter was what sold me heart and soul lady 🥰
Honestly, once you've tried Japanese sweet potatoes there's no going back to any other variety.
I steamed the potatoes for the first time and made the one with the seedy nut mix. It was so good and husband was impressed! Making the lentil, yogurt one next. We love you, Carla!
What did you use in the seed mix? Any recommendations?
Perf! I have tahini and sweet potatoes! Maybe a roasted chicken... And scrunchy salad... Dinner will be 🔥

Now I NEED Carla to tackle okra!

“No notes!”
Period. Love you C!
I recently made all 3 of these for my family each of us had a different one as our favorite, we couldn't decide, all so delicious!

I love sweet potatoes 🍠 and I love Carla❤️ So thank you Carla, for this generous gift of a video 😚👌
Very few things better than a sweetie p for dinner or breakfast
Sweet potatoes are a staple in my kitchen! I am making all of these this week... thank you so much!!
Can't wait to make these recipes!
Craveable vegetables. Love you Carla!!

ooh I'm so excited about this! I still make the sweet potato with lime pickle and labneh on a regular basis. One of my faves.
Reporting back that I made the herby lentils and sweet potato and was immensely pleased.
I've never been intrigued by black lentils before!
I choose all three! This is amazing Carla. This type of video does great things for my cooking style.
I eat any sweet potato with yogurt, granola, sumac and lime. It's amazing!
It all looks amazing!!
I'm drooling!!
Im gonna try a three of these. So approachable and quick. I went to cooking school and sometimes that means my meals get overly complicated and complex and then im ewting dinner at like 11pm lol. These were great recipes

ahhh im so excited about this video! in Aotearoa New Zealand we call them Kumara

Steamed sw pots 1st time with your kale and pickle creation I adored!

you are very talented!! thank you!! really appreciate your combinations of flavors and textures
Wow these all look soooo good! Making the third one tonight for dinner!
One stick of butter recipes always taste delicious

Queen Carla coming in with the goods again! ❤❤❤
I always am judgmental of peeps who dislike a sweet spud 🥔 ❤ this is such a fun dinner idea and I love the 30 min speediness
These look amazing
i loved the monologue about mixing and mashing the tahini butter together, it reminded me of that lady gaga clip :D
This all looks yummy but I need to take a second to recognize how amazing you look in this video. Idk if it’s the the white jean, gold herringbone necklace, loose curls vibe but sick look!
you’re so mother….we love you Carla 😭
if you mix the sesame oil into the tahini 1st, then slowly add the thinner/watery ingredients, it comes together much easier.
YUM !
Watching rn 🤤vegetarian here ♥️❤️
Beautiful! Delicious!
"3 tsp of olive oil" has "two shots of vodka" energy
EXCELLENT
ok, i'm off to the grocery now - thank you ma'am!
i want them all 🤤
I’m 100% in on all of these. Also, gotta see the cool tattoo please!
YUMMMMM
i fear the tahini butter is life-changing
Looooooooove this! 🍠 🎉
Calra and team! What if there was just a full-length audio recording of each episode. How long would those be? I think the verbal instructions and all the tool-to-bowl clinks and grinder cranks and obvs the knife "tchhsk"s would be a really delightful podcast or something. You're doing great!
Potato sauna!
ngl im a basic girl so my reccomendation is sweet potato with steamed tofu, soy sauce, & sesame seeds or sweet potato with almond butter and maple syrup
🤤yum

Anything with a fried egg I'm in
I don't care for sweet potatoes. But I like the true yams.
I will henceforth only refer to sweet potatoes as "sweetie p's"! 😍
Carla, or anyone: do you know what brand her pepper grinder is? I know she must’ve mentioned it before and its probably like a gazillion dollars but it just seems like such a good one 😭
idk if you're aware of this or it's just complete random but i got an ad from you!! promoting goldilocks pans!!! right in the middle of this video❤
can't wait to try! (also, gochugaru -- GAME CHANGER! thanks for introducing ur fans to this amazingness)
Is the written recipe only available for paid subscribers on sub stack? I watched the whole video and loved it, but the ingredients list is only on screen?
Where can I get these recipes? They look so good!

-garlic
-pumpkin seeds
What items am I missing?

Carla! You need to have a revival of your pairing with Miz Cracker! How can we make this happen???
I saw you teasing Matty. 😆
"...pass it off to someone else..." :D
I like you calling is sweetie pies 🎉❤🎉
Did my girl Carla get a tattoo? 👀
What nuts did you use in sweet potato topping #3?! 😱 🤤 🍠
i just ate the leftovers for dinner (true story!), pretty sure it was sunflower seeds, pepitas, and chopped almonds!
Thanks Carla! 😊 🙏 Keep up the amazing work!
is there any real differences between a Yam and a Sweet potato ?
I have yet to have a good experience with tahini. It always reads as too bitter for me, I just use sesame oil in its place.
Do you REALLY love Tajin if you haven’t ever just poured it directly into your hand and licked it?!😂😂😂😂
If you're cooking for one, 5 min on each side in the microwave gets you the same result as the steaming
Spudbundance - missed opportunity there
They all get a rose lol
HeyGuys
The more videos I watch, the more I'm convinced that Carla is basically Elaine Benes with a spatula
And Cosmo was Kramer's first name.
I miss Patreon and i miss Luke
Apologies! I almost forgot; comment.
Omfgg💙💛🧡❤️🔥
First!
That looks more like a Chimichurri.
Oo look at me I'm so speedy fast
I. Want. To. EAt. That...
I'm late to the sweet potato party but I want to know about Carla's tatoo......
carla has a tattoo????
Right?? Where have I been
