Teriyaki Sweet Potato Bowl
Ingredients
- ½ cup coconut nectar (sub with agave if you like, but it will be slightly less thick and sweet)
- 2 Tbsp hot sauce
- 1 tsp yellow curry powder
- 2 tsp toasted sesame seeds
- 1 cup wild rice blend (see Recipe Notes)
- ¼ tsp salt
- 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped into ½-inch pieces
- 2 large avocados, pitted and cubed
- ½ cup sliced green onion
- Optional: toasted slivered almonds and red pepper flakes for garnish
Instructions
- Make the Curry Teriyaki Sauce a few hours before you want to eat or the day before, just so it has time to marry the flavors and it gets thicker after it sits in the fridge.
- Add the coconut nectar, hot sauce, curry powder and sesame seeds to a small bowl. Whisk well until smooth. Add to the freezer for 1 hour or the fridge for a few hours.
- Preheat oven to 420°F and line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Add the rice, the ¼ tsp salt and 1¾ cups water to a medium pot over high heat. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce the heat to simmer, and cook 45 minutes until all the water is gone. Remove from heat, cover and steam 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
- While the rice is cooking, add the chopped sweet potatoes to the lined pan, salt and pepper them and bake 25-30 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown and tender and cooked through.
- Assemble your bowls adding desired amount of rice, sweet potatoes and sliced avocado.
- Drizzle Curry Teriyaki sauce all over the bowls and garnish with fresh green onions and extra sesame seeds. If using, add the toasted slivered almonds and red pepper flakes.
