In this recipe, we’re combining fall’s best produce with some of our favorite African and Southeast Asian flavors. Sweet potatoes and earthy kale are perfectly at home in a rich béchamel sauce made with coconut milk, piquant ginger and a rich, warming Berbere spice blend, common in Ethiopian and Eritrean cuisines.

instructions
1
Prepare the ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 475°F. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Heat 2 large pots of salted water to boiling on high. Peel and medium dice the sweet potatoes. Peel and mince the ginger. Remove and discard the kale stems; roughly chop the leaves.
2
Cook the sweet potatoes:
Add the sweet potatoes to the first pot of boiling water. Cook 7 to 9 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork. Drain thoroughly and place in a large bowl.
3
Cook the noodles:
While the sweet potatoes cook, add the noodles to the second pot of boiling water. Cook 5 to 6 minutes, or until just shy of al dente (still slightly firm to the bite). Drain thoroughly and transfer to the bowl of cooked sweet potatoes. Rinse and wipe out the pot.
4
Make the béchamel sauce:
In the pot used to cook the noodles, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the ginger and cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes, or until slightly softened and fragrant. Add the flour and spice blend; cook, whisking frequently, 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until toasted and fragrant. Slowly add the coconut milk (shaking the can before opening) and ¾ cup of water; season with salt and pepper. Cook, whisking frequently, 3 to 5 minutes, or until thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5
Finish the filling:
Stir the kale into the pot of béchamel sauce. Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes, or until the kale has wilted. Turn off the heat. Add the cooked sweet potatoes and noodles; stir until thoroughly combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
6
Bake the casserole & serve your dish:
Transfer the finished filling to a baking dish. In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and cheese. Stir in enough olive oil to moisten the mixture; season with salt and pepper to taste. Evenly top the filling with the breadcrumb-cheese mixture. Place the baking dish on a sheet pan. Bake 8 to 10 minutes, or until bubbly and browned on top. Remove from the oven and let stand for at least 2 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
