奶油脆皮烤红薯

serves 4–6

（4-6人份）

材料：

6 medium sweet potatoes (about 1.5kg in total)

6个中等大小的红薯，大约1.5公斤

5 tbsp roughly chopped sage, plus extra to garnish

5汤匙切碎的鼠尾草，留一些装饰用

6 garlic cloves, crushed

6瓣儿蒜，压碎

2 tbsp coarse sea salt

2汤匙粗海盐

½ tsp freshly ground black pepper

半汤匙新鲜的黑胡椒

250ml whipping cream

250毫升可搅打奶油

1 Preheat the oven to 200°C/Gas Mark 6. Wash the sweet potatoes (do not peel them) and cut them into discs 5mm thick. A mandolin is best for this job but you could use a sharp knife.

1.先预热烤箱200摄氏度。洗干净红薯，不用削皮，切成5毫米厚度的片儿。用专门的工具或者直接用刀切都是可以哒，根据自己的能力来~

2 In a bowl, mix together the sweet potatoes, sage, garlic, salt and pepper. Arrange the slices of sweet potato in a deep, medium-sized ovenproof dish by taking tight packs of them and standing them up next to each other. They should fit together quite tightly so you get parallel lines of sweet potato slices (skins showing) along the length or width of the dish. Throw any remaining bits of garlic or sage from the bowl over the potatoes. Cover the dish with foil, place in the oven and roast for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and pour the cream evenly over the potatoes. Roast, uncovered, for a further 25 minutes. The cream should have thickened by now. Stick a sharp knife in different places in the dish to make sure the potatoes are cooked. They should be totally soft.

2.在一个碗里面，把红薯、鼠尾草、大蒜、盐和黑胡椒混合。把红薯放在一个足够深、中等大小的烤盘里面，让红薯片都立起来，挨紧排列，要足够紧哦，并且排列整齐，要从旁边看上去像一条线~把碗里剩下的蒜和鼠尾草放在甜土豆上面。用锡箔盖上烤盘，放入烤箱烤45分钟，然后撤锡箔，倒入奶油，在尽量平均到每块红薯上哦。继续烤，这次不用盖锡箔了，大约25分钟后，奶油应该变硬了。用刀子戳一下不同地方，确保红薯已经熟了，这个时候你的感觉应该是：好软哦~

3 Serve immediately, garnished with sage, or leave to cool down. In any case, bringing the potatoes to the table in the baking dish, after scraping the outside clean, will make a strong impact.

3. 马上上桌，用剩下的鼠尾草装饰一下，或者让它凉下来均可。任何情况下，当你把这份美食端出来，都会是惊艳的~
