PREPARATION FOR SWEET POTATO WEDGES

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F), line a baking tray with parchment paper, or lightly grease it with olive oil.
  1. Prepare the Sweet Potatoes: Wash and peel the sweet potato, then cut it into even-sized wedges to ensure uniform cooking.
  1. Season the Wedges: Toss the sweet potato wedges in a large bowl with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  1. Arrange and Roast: Spread the seasoned wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking tray, ensuring they are not overlapping. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
  1. Serve: Remove the wedges from the oven and serve them hot as a side dish or snack, with your favourite dipping sauce if desired.

COOKING TIME

25-30 minutes

TIPS FOR SWEET POTATO WEDGES

  • For extra crispiness, soak the cut sweet potato wedges in cold water for 30 minutes before baking. Pat dry before seasoning.
  • Ensure that the baking tray is not overcrowded, which can cause the wedges to steam rather than roast.
  • Add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a spicier version, or sprinkle with fresh herbs like rosemary after baking.

VARIATIONS

  • Cheesy Wedges: Sprinkle with grated Parmesan or nutritional yeast before baking for a cheesy twist.
  • Spicy Wedges: Add cayenne pepper or chilli powder to the seasoning mix for a spicy kick.
  • Herb Wedges: Add fresh or dried herbs like rosemary or thyme to enhance the flavour.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Fridge: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheating: Reheat in the oven at 180°C (350°F) for 5-10 minutes until crispy.
  • Freezer: Freeze uncooked seasoned wedges in a single layer on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer bag. Bake from frozen, adding 5-10 minutes to the cooking time.
