Categories     Food & Cooking     Holidays & Events     Thanksgiving Recipes     Thanksgiving Side Dish Recipes     Sweet Potato Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 medium sweet potatoes (about 2 1/2 pounds), scrubbed well
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon hot paprika
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Coarse salt and freshly ground white pepper
Lime wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Slice sweet potatoes in half lengthwise; slice each half into 3 wedges. Place in a medium bowl, and toss with oil, cumin, paprika, ginger, and cayenne pepper. Season with salt and white pepper.
  • Arrange sweet potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Transfer to oven; roast until potatoes are crisp and golden on the bottom, about 15 minutes. Turn, and continue roasting until golden all over, about 15 minutes more.
  • Remove from oven; season with salt and pepper. Serve with lime wedges.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-cut sweet potatoes from the grocery store.
  • If you don't have cumin, you can substitute another warm spice, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, or cardamom.
  • Be sure to use a heavy-bottomed skillet to prevent the sweet potatoes from sticking.
  • If you like your sweet potatoes crispy, cook them for a few extra minutes until they are browned.
  • Serve the sweet potatoes with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, mayonnaise, or ranch dressing.
