Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) to preheat. Meanwhile, prepare the sweet potatoes by washing them thoroughly and patting them dry.
2. Prepare the Miso Butter: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and whisk in the white miso until well combined. This miso butter mixture will add a rich, umami flavor to the sweet potatoes.
3. Prepare the Sweet Potatoes: Cut the sweet potatoes into halves or quarters, depending on their size, ensuring they are about the same thickness for even cooking. Arrange the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet.
4. Roast the Sweet Potatoes: Brush the miso butter mixture generously over the sweet potatoes, ensuring each piece is well coated. Place in the preheated oven and roast for about 25-30 minutes, or until they are tender and the edges begin to caramelize.
5. Garnish and Serve: Once roasted, remove the sweet potatoes from the oven and sprinkle with finely chopped chives for a fresh, herby finish. Serve warm as a delicious side dish or a main vegetarian course.
