Spiced Roasted Sweet Potatoes

These sweet potatoes are simple but full of flavor. It can be tough to squeeze anything roasted into your after work menu, but with some careful timing and chopping these will be done in a flash.

I like to serve them with a simply seasoned (salt and pepper only) piece of salmon and a simple green salad. Leftovers are also really yummy at room temperature in a salad.

2 large or 3 medium sweet potatoes (I like garnet yams, but any yam or sweet potato will do)

olive oil

1T cardamom

1 t freshly ground cinnamon

1 t red chili flakes

freshly grated ginger, 1/4-inch piece

1 t salt

1/2 t freshly ground pepper

Preheat oven to 425 F.

Cut potatoes into 1 inch pieces. Drizzle with olive oil using your hands to turn to coat evenly.

Add spices and ginger and turn to coat evenly.

Bake at 425 for 30 minutes or until potatoes are lightly browned and tender in the center, turning once about midway through.

Enjoy!
