Description

Ingredients

• 2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into wedges
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• ½ teaspoon chili powder
• a pinch of cayenne pepper for spiciness
• salt and pepper
• 2 tablespoons roasted sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons tahini
• 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
• fresh cilantro

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Toss the sweet potatoes with the vegetable oil, chili powder, cayenne, and salt and pepper. Place on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes, stirring gently every 5-10 minutes.
• Increase the heat to 400 degrees and roast for another 5-10 minutes until the sweet potatoes are turning golden brown. Continue to stir the sweet potato pieces as needed to prevent over-browning. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
• On a separate platter or directly on the baking sheet, drizzle the sweet potatoes with the sesame oil and tahini. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Add a handful of cilantro leaves. Serve immediately.
