Ingredients
- 4 lbs (1.8kg) sweet potatoes
- 6 oz (175g) unsalted butter room temperature or melted
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Maldon sea salt flakes preferred or salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons rosemary or oregano, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (207°C). Using a mandolin slicer, thinly slice the peeled potatoes, then pat them dry with paper towels.
- Place the sliced sweet potatoes in a large bowl. Using your hands, toss them with butter, salt, black pepper, and chopped rosemary or oregano until fully coated.
- Carefully arrange the sweet potatoes upright, from left to right, in a small baking tray. Avoid packing the sweet potatoes too tightly, as this will affect their crispiness.
- Bake for an hour, or until the sweet potatoes are cooked through and crispy. Serve immediately.
