Ingredients

• 3 medium-sized sweet potatoes
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoons ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.5 cups plain Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon curry powder
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F). If using an oven, preheat to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into evenly-sized fingers or wedges, about 1/2-inch thick.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, toss the sweet potato fingers with olive oil, paprika, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until they are evenly coated.

Step 4

Place the sweet potato fingers directly onto the grill grates or on a grilling basket. If baking, arrange them in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 5

Grill for 8-10 minutes on one side, then flip and grill for another 8-10 minutes until they are tender and have nice grill marks. If baking, roast for 18-22 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and slightly crispy.

Step 6

While the sweet potatoes are cooking, prepare the curry dip. In a small bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, curry powder, honey, and lime juice until smooth and creamy.

Step 7

Taste the dip and adjust seasoning if needed. For a little extra heat, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper.

Step 8

Once the sweet potato fingers are cooked, remove them from the grill or oven and let them cool slightly.

Step 9

Serve the sweet potato fingers warm with the curry dip on the side. Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.
