How do you recommend coooking sweet potato wedges?

[shadypines]

There seems to be lots of ways to do them, garlic, paprika, lemon etc etc or just S&P ? Please recommend your delicious ways, thanks

ha ha, just realised I hoverred on the letter 'o' too long!

I just do mine in oil, salt and pepper. Also a bit controversially, I do mine in discs cutting across the potato instead of long ways. You get more even slices so they cooked evenly.

Thanks, I like your idea UCO, how thick do you cut them?

About 0.5 cm but only because they cook fast at that thickness! It can be a bit arbitrary. I also don't peel them first. The skin is lovely.

Toss in a bowl containing 1tbps olive oil, 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp mild chilli powder and a sprinkle of salt. Then tip out and bake on an oven tray at 180°C for 20 mins or so.

I slice into relatively thin wedges, I find the chunkier they are the more they steam and you don't get any crunch. I coat in semolina and salt, pepper and olive oil and roast on a high heat.

If you want them to crisp you need to make sure there is a gap between each wedge e.g they should not touch each other.

Some oil, black pepper and smoked paprika.

I chop 2 sweet potatoes into wedges, toss with 2 tbsp olive oil, 2 tsp paprika, 1 tsp cinnamon and salt and pepper. Roast for about 40 minutes. I might try discs next time though.

Leftovers are good straight from the fridge dunked in guacamole

Oil, Paprika, chili powder, salt and pepper. Maybe some dried parsley too. I sometimes steam the wedges for 5 mins first if I want to cut down the roasting time, they still crisp up well.

Salt and pepper, then drizzle honey over for the last 15 minutes, amazing!

Olive oil, salt and pepper, cumin seeds, oregano and hot smoked paprika.

Use olive oil and a bit of finely chopped rosemary, a nice hot oven, then simply swap the sweet potato for real potatoes.
