Ingredients

• 2 large sweet potatoes
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion
• 3 garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
• 1 lime

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Wash, peel, and cube the sweet potatoes into 1-inch pieces.

Step 3

Place the sweet potato cubes on a large baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and toss to coat evenly. Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, flipping halfway, until tender and slightly caramelized.

Step 4

While the sweet potatoes are roasting, finely chop the yellow onion, mince the garlic cloves, and grate the fresh ginger.

Step 5

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for 4-5 minutes until softened and beginning to brown.

Step 6

Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for 1 minute until aromatic.

Step 7

Add the ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric powder, ground cinnamon, and cayenne pepper. Toast the spices for 30 seconds while stirring to release their flavors.

Step 8

Remove the roasted sweet potatoes from the oven and add them to the skillet with the spices. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper, then toss gently to coat the sweet potatoes in the spice mixture.

Step 9

Cook for 3-4 minutes on low heat to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 10

Finely chop the fresh cilantro and cut the lime into wedges.

Step 11

Garnish the dish with cilantro and serve with lime wedges for a bright, zesty finish.
