TWO SISTERS INN SWEET POTATO ROESTIS - with Apple Butter Cherry Sauce

Total preparation time:  60 minutes
Serves:  6

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 lb sweet potatoes, peeled
  • 1 clove garlic, peeled
  • 1/4 inch piece fresh ginger, peeled
  • 1 cup cooked quinoa
  • 1/3 cup flour (quinoa flour for gluten free)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • 4 eggs, slightly beaten
  • Apple Butter-Cherry Sauce
  • 1 cup light apple butter
  • 1 cup cherry jam
  • 1 stick unsalted butter
  • Garnish
  • Sour cream, 6 tablespoons
  • Parsley, finely chopped
  • Marigold petals

Steps:

  1. Grate potatoes into a large bowl. Finely mince garlic and ginger and add to potatoes, mixing well. Place mixture into a large Ziploc bag pressing the air out, and refrigerate overnight
  2. Place 2/3 cup of water in a small pot. Put 1/3 cup uncooked quinoa in a sieve and rinse thoroughly. Add to the water in pot and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 15 minutes or until all the liquid is absorbed. Cool slightly. May be prepared and refrigerated overnight. (Note: use 1/3 cup uncooked quinoa to make 1 cup cooked.)
  3. Place cherry jam, apple butter and butter in saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and cool slightly before serving. May be made in advance and reheated before serving. Makes 2-1/4 cups. Refrigerate unused portions
  4. Preheat oven to 350o. Place potato mixture into large bowl and add quinoa, flour, salt and pepper, mixing well. Add eggs and mix until evenly moist. Heat two non-stick griddles over medium heat and brush lightly with oil. Using a ¼ cup measure, ladle potato mixture onto griddles and flatten into 4-inch circles. Cook about 3 minutes until crisp and brown on one side, then carefully turn over and repeat on the other side. Remove from griddles and place in oven on a preheated rimmed baking sheet on parchment paper for about 10 minutes until cooked through.
  5. Serve 3 roesti per plate topped with ¼ cup of apple butter-cherry sauce and a small dollop of sour cream on top. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and marigold petals.

Valentine's Treats (Linzer Stained Glass Cookies & Chocolate Truffles) at the Two Sisters Inn - a bed and breakfastImagine having a playground like this in your own backyard! The Inn is at the base of Pikes Peak, and only one mile away is this beautiful Garden of the Gods and Red Rocks Park where you can picnic, hike, bike or horseback ride.
Enter the cozy Cottage behind the main house by way of its private garden patio. Sleep peacefully on the featherbed in a  bedroom of white wicker, cuddle up with a good book on the living room rockers by the fireplace, and soak up the sunshine and moonbeams in the skylight shower.  The creativity of the Two Sisters Inn owners is shown in this Red Box filled with Mosaic Mousse as prepared for Valentine's Day
A magnificent art glass front door opens into the Living Room where you can sit by the Manitou Greenstone fireplace and be surrounded by antiques and original hardwood floors.  Local artists' works are found throughout the Inn including oil paintings, sculptures, and glass lampshades.Isn't it romantic to watch the twinkling stars through the skylight over the bed in the Floral Room?  The hardwood floors,  antique vanity and steamer trunk are reminiscent of the Inn's Victorian origins.  Soak in the original clawfoot bathtub from the boarding house days in its private bathroom.
