Notes
- For crispier sweet potatoes, soak the cubes in cold water for 10–30 minutes to remove excess surface starch. Drain and dry thoroughly before seasoning.
- Feel free to add additional garlic or other spices.
- Looking to make these spicy? You can add a pinch of cayenne pepper or 1/4 teaspoon of red chili flakes to kick up the heat.
