Roasting these vegetables brings out their natural sweetness
Yield: makes 6 servings
INGREDIENTS
- 5 orange-fleshed sweet potatoes (yams), peeled
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper

- 1 tbsp soy sauce
Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the potatoes into large chunks and place on a baking sheet. Drizzle with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast the potatoes for 30 minutes, turning halfway through, until almost tender.
