Do you cook hot dishes for the new year? Or maybe you are planning a festive lunch on January 1st? I suggest as a side dish to cook sweet potatoes, diced and baked in the oven. It looks like fried sweet potatoes and crunches almost as well. However, this side dish has an important difference from the popular fast food - it is baked in the oven, which means it is much healthier.

Instructions
- Mix everything with your hands so that each piece of sweet potato is covered with starch and spices, and then put the bars in one layer on a baking sheet covered with baking parchment. Sprinkle thyme sprigs on top. Send the sweet potatoes to bake in a preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven, lay out the sweet potatoes and return it back for another 15 minutes. The baking time may vary depending on the characteristics of the oven and the size of the sweet potato bars.
- While the sweet potato side dish is being prepared, I will return to my impromptu: small pieces of sweet potatoes are already laid out in two serving molds. Then I made a white Roux sauce from flour, butter and milk. I generously salted this sauce, seasoned it to taste with pepper and nutmeg, and then poured it into molds with sweet potatoes. On top I added finely chopped smoked sausages and grated everything with cheese. I sent the molds with the future casserole into the preheated oven for 40 minutes.
