Any French Fry lovers in the house? These roasted potatoes aren’t fries, but they hit the spot with their crispy edges and soft middle. I added some dill, rosemary, garlic, and sea salt which was the perfect savory flavors for these sweet potatoes! I drizzled in a homemade Tzatziki sauce for a combo dreams are made of!


Potatoes

Ingredients

  • 4 white sweet potatoes sliced into pieces

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 2 tsp chopped fresh rosemary

  • 1 tsp dill

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • Sea salt to preference


Directions

  • Preheat oven to 450.

  • Place all ingredients in a bowl or plastic bag and mix to coat potatoes evenly.

  • I used a crisping basket pan like this one and roast the potatoes until crisp, about 30 minutes. You can also use a baking sheet with parchment paper and flip potatoes after 15 minutes to crisp evenly on both sides.


Garlic Tahini Sauce

Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp Tahini

  • 2 Tbsp Lemon Juice

  • 1/4 cup water

  • 1 Tbsp minced garlic


Directions

  • Add all ingredients to a mixer or blender and pure until smooth. Add more water for a thinner consistency.
