Tipps

Choosing your Sweet Potatoes

Look for firm, smooth sweet potatoes. The skin should be even in color and relatively free of scars.

Roasting Time

The roasting time may vary depending on your oven and the size of your sweet potato chunks. Keep an eye on them while roasting to avoid burning.

Fresh Herbs for the best flavor

This recipe calls for fresh herbs for the best possible flavor. Dried herbs can not substitute the fresh flavor in this particular dish.

Serving Warm

These Roasted Sweet Potatoes are best served warm right out of the oven. The heat brings out their natural sweetness beautifully.

Customize Your Herbs

Feel free to play around with the herbs. If you prefer, use your favorite fresh herbs to enhance the flavor.
