Have you ever made something that as soon as you tasted it you knew you'd be making it over and over again for the rest of your life? This is one of those recipes. It's got quite a history traveling from one food site after another... Kalyn of Kalyn's Kitchen adapted it a recipe found on Epicurious.com. She found the recipe via Food Musings, who also loved them. Ingredients: - sweet potatoes, one per person
- olive oil (see below)
- Seasoning Mix:
- 2 T ground coriander
- 1 T ground fennel
- 1 T dried oregano
- 1 T Aleppo Pepper (or use a smaller amount of cayenne pepper)
- 2 T kosher salt
Instructions: - Preheat oven to 425 F. Peel sweet potatoes and cut into strips about 3 inches long and 3/4 inches thick.
- Combine coriander, fennel, oregano, and Aleppo pepper. Mix in salt. (This makes enough for several batches of sweet potatoes, so you'll need a small jar to store the extra.)
- In plastic bowl, toss together cut sweet potatoes, olive oil, and spice mixture.
- You will need about 1 T olive oil and 2 tsp. of the spice mixture for every two sweet potatoes, depending on how spicy you like it.
- Spray flat roasting pan with non-stick spray. (Or use a non-stick pan)
- Spread out sweet potatoes in single layer.
- Roast 30-40 minutes, turning about every ten minutes.
- Sweet potatoes should be softened through and lightly browned when they're done.
- Serve hot.
