How to prep sweet potato
While sweet potato skin can be eaten, when roasting it can sometimes become dried out and hard. The first step in this recipe is to peel the sweet potatoes. Cubing the sweet potato will allow for it to roast evenly and become a bit crispy on the outside. To cube, begin by slicing the potato lengthwise. The cube each slice into even pieces.
How to roast Sweet Potatoes
Preheat oven to 400 degrees fahrenheit. Put prepped sweet potato in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Toss sweet potato sprouts to coat evenly. Spread sweet potato on a baking sheet. Roast for 20 minutes, flipping once halfway through. The sweet potato will be crispy on the exterior and soft on the interior.
