Recipes »  Side Dish  »  Potatoes

Simple to make and everyone seems to enjoy this dish. This recipe also works well with yams or Idaho baking potatoes.

"Just made these tonight except I used garlic salt and a cajun blend seasoning and my husband who hates sweet potatoes couldn't stop eating them!! My 1 1/2 year old triplets couldn't get enough of them either so this is a deffinate keeper! I served them along side a honey mustard roast turkey breast and they were a perfect pair!! Thanks for the inspiration!!" - tripletmama

Servings          
Original recipe makes 6
16 ozSweet potatoes; - Washed
1 tsolive oil
1/2 tsSalt; - coarse kosher is best.
1/4 tsGround nutmeg
1/8 tsGround cloves
1/8 tsPepper; - coarse ground

Roasted Sweet 'taters Preparation

Preheat oven to 425F.

Cut sweet potatoes into about 3/4 inch cubes (large dice). Leave the skins on removing only the hard knob at each end. Alternatively you might cut them in wedges or slice them in 1/2 inch disks.

Combine sweet potatoes and remaining ingredients in a bowl (or plastic bag); toss gently to coat. Place potatoes on a baking sheet (do not overlap); bake at 425F for 25 minutes or until very tender.

If you're using your oven for something else (at a lower temperature) that's fine, just adjust the cooking time up a bit.

    Wow...awesome! Substituted coconut oil for the olive oil. Turned out GREAT. Whole family loved included the 3 year olds. Looking forward to trying spicy on another day. So, so good. Thank you!

    Very good flavor. We doubled the ingredients for the seasoning and the oil so every round of the 'taters got some.

    Quick and easy. I might serve them with some french onion dip or possibly ranch dressing on the side. No improvement necessary, they are great just the way they are.
