Number Of Ingredients 8

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

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Heat a baking sheet in the oven until hot, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, slice sweet potatoes in half lengthwise; slice each half into 3 wedges. Place in a medium bowl, and toss with oil, cumin, paprika, and ginger. Season with salt and pepper.
  • When baking sheet is hot, remove from oven. Arrange sweet potatoes in a single layer on sheet. Return to oven; cook until potatoes are crisp and golden on the bottom, about 15 minutes. Turn, and continue cooking until golden all over, about 15 minutes more.
  • Remove from oven; season with salt and pepper. Serve with limes and sauce.
