Ingredients
- 4 large sweet potatoes
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
- 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup smoked sausage, sliced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Step 2
Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes, then pierce each one several times with a fork to allow steam to escape while baking.
Step 3
Rub the sweet potatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until tender when pricked with a fork.
Step 4
While the sweet potatoes are baking, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the smoked sausage slices and cook until nicely browned. Set aside.
Step 5
In a small bowl, mix the sour cream, whole-grain mustard, caraway seeds, salt, and black pepper. Chop the fresh dill and set it aside for garnish.
Step 6
Once the sweet potatoes are cooked, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly for about 5 minutes.
Step 7
Slice each sweet potato open lengthwise, being careful not to cut all the way through. Gently fluff the flesh with a fork and add 1 tablespoon of butter to each potato.
Step 8
Spoon the sour cream mixture over the fluffed sweet potato flesh, then top with the cooked sausage slices.
Step 9
Sprinkle each sweet potato with fresh dill for garnish and serve warm.
