Prep

1. Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into chunks. Pat the salmon fillets dry and season lightly with salt and black pepper.

2. Whisk the white miso paste, soy sauce, mirin, and half of the sesame oil in a small bowl. Coat the salmon fillets with the glaze and let them sit while you cook the sweet potatoes.

3. Put the sweet potatoes in a saucepan, cover with water, bring to a boil, and cook for 12 to 15 minutes until very tender. Drain well, then mash with the tahini, sesame seeds, and a pinch of salt until silky.

4. Heat the remaining sesame oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the salmon fillets and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on the first side. Turn, lower the heat slightly, and cook for 2 to 4 minutes more, spooning any glaze from the pan over the top, until the salmon is just cooked through.
