Vibrant Dragon Fruit and Purple Potato Delight

May 9, 2025 Written by Evelyn

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share with you a unique dish that’s perfect for a cozy night in or a special gathering with friends. I was inspired to create this recipe by the vibrant colors and flavors of summer produce. Without further ado, let’s dive into my latest culinary invention!

Ingredients

– 200g purple potatoes
– 150g rainbow carrots
– 100g dragon fruit
– 50g pistachios
– 1 clove of star anise
– 2 tbsp black sesame seeds
– 3 tbsp honey
– Salt and pepper to taste

Kitchen Tools

  • chef’s knife
  • cutting board
  • oven
  • baking sheet

Preparation

I start by preheating the oven to 400°F (200°C). Next, I wash and scrub the purple potatoes and rainbow carrots. I then slice the potatoes and carrots into rounds and place them on a baking sheet. I drizzle them with honey, sprinkle with black sesame seeds, and add a clove of star anise for a touch of warmth and aroma. The dragon fruit is cubed and added to the sheet, along with crushed pistachios for a crunchy contrast.

I pop the baking sheet in the oven and let the colorful medley roast for about 25-30 minutes, or until the veggies are caramelized and slightly crispy. The aroma that fills the kitchen is simply irresistible!

Serving

Once the dish is done, I sprinkle it with a pinch of salt and pepper for seasoning. The unique blend of flavors and textures in this dish is sure to wow your taste buds. Each bite is a burst of sweetness from the honey, a nutty crunch from the pistachios, and a hint of earthiness from the star anise.

Tips

For an extra kick of flavor, try drizzling a bit of balsamic glaze over the roasted veggies before serving. The tangy acidity pairs perfectly with the sweetness of the honey and dragon fruit, elevating the dish to new heights.
