Stir-Fried Sweet Potatoes Recipe (2024)

I added some tofu and it made this into a great and filling main dish.

Served this alongside pan-fried black cod for dinner last night (very good), and mixed it with a farro-mushroom-kale salad for lunch today. I can think of dozens of salad applications...

I put in chickpeas, kale, and added lime and cilantro, and it made it a full meal. Thanks, definitely making again!

Used a mix of canola and sesame oil to stir fry this; added a can of black beans, and squeezed in the juice of half a lime and served it as salad. Was very good.

Halved the recipe to serve two. Used mini food processor to chop the garlic, ginger, jalapeño, and scallions. Used large holes on a box grater for the sweet potatoes. Quick, easy, and delicious. Will definitely make again and again.

This is great! I used purple Japanese yams and a few Tbsps of sambal oelek in lieu of the chili pepper. Served with lime wedges, as it really wants a bright acid note. Will be returning to this one again soon!

I'm waiting for Cuisinart to replace my recalled blade, so hand cut the green onions, garlic, and ginger. I cut the potatoes in 1/2-inch dice and used red pepper flakes for heat. Really tasty, especially the browned bits on the potatoes.

Put a couple fried eggs on top with sriracha ketchup. Yum!!

This was very good.. I usually am very careful about making a recipe the first time exactly as written, but I made this on the spur of the moment and used some red onion and chili-garlic paste instead of scallions and a pepper. It was great! and I will try it as written next time. Highly recommended!

This recipe truly benefits from a large skillet. I used my cast iron skillet but next time will use a non-stick simply because it is bigger and will help the potato get crispy instead of soggy. Even with the wetter potato this was a delicious side.

This is delicious, easy and healthy! Probably going to be a new staple in my household. Thanks!

Delicious. I was in a rush and neglected to separate the blitzing of the first four ingredients. Things turned out just fine. More than fine actually. This recipe is a keeper.

Made a couple minor changes: no scallions so used snipped garden chives. Mixed w/the garlic, ginger & ripe jalapeño & sautéed all together upfront (for 30 secs) before adding the potato. I was serving as a side where the soy wouldn't work (sautéed pork tenderloin medallions w/apples & mustard sauce) so I simply added a squeeze of lemon before plating. I cooked this in a large cast iron pan till done then held uncovered in a 200 oven while I made the main dish. Worked. Great!

Added some fried sriracha-marinated tofu to give it some protein and eat as a main vegan dish. I'm also thinking of adding quinoa next time as well to make it a bit more hearty.

Very good recipe. I added a splash of lime juice just before serving.

Cut potatoes in small dice and did not use the soy sauce. Really great as a side with salmon.

10 minutes isn't enough for the sweet potato. Mine were still raw on the inside at that point

Black beans or fried egg,Add lime juice at end

Added a splash of water to keep from sticking in cast-iron. Used shredded red cabbage at last minute of frying for crunch, subbed chili flakes, and garnished with chopped almond as suggested. Would add more ginger next time. Simple, healthy side-dish to go with dumplings. Will make again.

I love sweet potatoes more than my family so I have tried many ways to get them hooked. This was one of their favorites. I didn't use the fresh hot chili as we don't like too much spice. Also, it was a little dry while sautéing, so I added a little chicken stock (could also use water). We all really liked it!

It is a lot more forgiving to cut potatoes into 3/4 inch dice.roast at 475 for 20-25 minutes. Technique comes from a great vegetable cookbook-Fast ,Fresh and Green. Which is great bargain since it is quite old,Mel

This was fine but nothing special. We added tofu but it didn't go that well with the dish. Should have followed recipe exactly!

Kinda of mushy. Good, but I like my smile cayenne sweet potatoes better

This was deeeeelicious. Thank you to the person who suggested a fried egg. Served it over rice, with a fried egg, and some sriracha mayo. So good!!

Use the whole bunch of scallions and add directly to the dish. Cooking time is somewhat shorter. Plenty of good quality soy sauce.

I thought this was good but the ginger was very strong. I would use less ginger next time.

on the dry side so add some liquid s.a. sriracha or chili garlic sauce for fluid

Added a fried egg and chili oil on top *chef kiss*

Made this exactly as written many times and it is so good. I'm not the biggest fan of sweet potatoes but I want to enjoy their health benefits so this was a great way to do so and still have a delicious side dish. Usually serve alongside fish.
