Servings: persons

4 sweet potatoes medium
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 quarts water
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika or paprika of your choice
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3/4 teaspoon garlic salt
black pepper
1 cup fresh cilantro or more to your taste
6 scallions coarsely chopped
2 teaspoons hot green chile finely chopped small, such as serrano or Thai, including some seeds
2 teaspoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/3 cup fresh lime juice or lemon juice
1/4 cup olive oil or canola

1
Preheat the oven to 350. Peel the sweet potatoes and slice about an inch thick. Add 1/2 tsp salt to the water in a saucepan, bring to a boil. Add the potato slices and simmer for 10 to 12 minutes, or until slightly soft. Remove and place on a paper towel to cool for 10 minutes.
2
Mix the topping ingredients and melt the butter and olive together in a separate bowl from the topping mix. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Place a small batch of slices into the butter and oil mix to coat and then place into the topping mix to coat. Coat both sides and set on the sheet pan. Repeat in small batches.
3
Roast for 25 minutes and flip the slices over for another 10. Keep an eye on these as they will burn rather easily. I like to serve the bites with cilantro (coriander) chutney-see the recipe below or buy already-prepared at the grocery store.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
