Notes

Cooking the sweet potatoes in the skillet without water or boiling intensifies the flavor so much.
You can however use leftover roast potatoes for this recipe.
Other veggies you can substitute are squash, potatoes, broccoli, zucchini or tomatoes for the summer!
The Gratin or Au Gratin is fancy for crunchy in french :) So don't feel intimidated to make this!
The crunchy topping can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge for up to 5 days.
To make this a vegan sweet potato recipe : Simply swap the butter for olive oil, or coconut oil, and use vegan parmesan cheese.
To make the gratins ahead of time, you can assemble them and broil just before serving.
Likewise, you can prepare the whole gratin advance and warm in a 350 degree oven for 8 minutes before serving.
Use NUTS for an extra crunch in the topping : walnut, pecans, pistachios or hazelnut pair so well here!
You can make this gratin recipe into a large 2 quart dish, simply adjust broiling time.
Always keep an eye on the broiler because it can brown quickly!
