Ingredients

• 4 medium-sized kumara (sweet potatoes)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup (grated) Gruyere cheese
• 2 tablespoons (chopped) fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Wash and scrub the kumara thoroughly, leaving the skins on for added texture and nutrients. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

Step 3

Slice each kumara into evenly sized wedges and transfer them to a large mixing bowl.

Step 4

Drizzle the olive oil over the kumara wedges. Add the garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything together until the wedges are evenly coated.

Step 5

Spread the seasoned kumara wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they do not overlap for even cooking.

Step 6

Roast the wedges in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Then, flip them over and continue roasting for another 10 minutes, or until golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork.

Step 7

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the grated Gruyere cheese evenly over the hot kumara wedges.

Step 8

Return the wedges to the oven and bake for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 9

Carefully remove the wedges from the oven and transfer them to a serving platter.

Step 10

Garnish with the chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately. Enjoy!
