Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 220C / 200C / gas mark 7 / 425F.
- Mix together the cumin, paprika, chilli, salt, garlic, olive oil and lime juice in a large bowl.
- Add the cubes of sweet potato and stir to coat thoroughly. (Or use your hands!)
- Place the sweet potato cubes on a large non-stick baking tray, ensuring the cubes are well spread out (use 2 baking sheets if necessary) and in a single layer.
- Roast in the oven for 20 minutes.
Notes
- It’s crucial to ensure the sweet potato cubes are spread out well over the baking sheet - if they are touching each other too much or piled on top of each other they will steam rather than roast…which won’t be half so nice!
- I have found that if you use a good non stick baking sheet, the cubes don’t need turning throughout their cooking time, but if you are at all worried do give them a check after 10 minutes and turn them if you think necessary.
