Honey-soy beef with sweet potatoes is a delicious and nutritious meal that combines tender beef fillets marinated in a sweet and savory sauce, with roasted sweet potatoes. This recipe is perfect for a family dinner or a special occasion, offering a delightful blend of flavors and textures.

Instructions:

1. Marinate the Beef:
- In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, mirin, and honey. Stir well to ensure the honey is fully dissolved.
- Place the beef fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Make sure the beef is well-coated. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, turning the fillets occasionally.
2. Prepare the Sweet Potatoes:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into evenly sized chunks.
- Place the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until they are tender and golden brown. Stir halfway through cooking to ensure even roasting.
3. Cook the Beef:
- Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
- Remove the beef fillets from the marinade and shake off any excess.
- Cook the beef fillets for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
4. Prepare the Toppings:
- While the beef is resting, heat the same skillet over medium heat.
- Add the grated ginger and sliced chili peppers to the skillet, and sauté for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant.
5. Serve:
- Divide the roasted sweet potatoes among four plates.
- Spoon the sautéed ginger and chili peppers over the beef.
- Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves for a burst of color and flavor.
6. Enjoy:
- Serve immediately, and enjoy your delicious honey-soy beef with sweet potatoes!

Tips:

- Marinate the beef fillets in the soy sauce, mirin, and honey for at least 30 minutes to ensure the meat absorbs all the rich flavors.

- Cut the sweet potatoes into even-sized pieces to ensure they roast uniformly.

- For an extra kick of flavor, add some finely grated ginger to the sweet potatoes before roasting.

- Garnish the dish with freshly chopped coriander leaves and finely sliced red hot chili peppers to enhance both the flavor and presentation.
