SPICED SWEET POTATOES
Fix-it And Enjoy-it Cookbook by Phyllis Pellman Good
Makes 4 servings Prep Time: 10-15 minutes Baking Time: 30-40 minutes
Ingredients • 1 tsp. coriander seeds • 1/2 tsp. fennel seeds • 1/2 tsp. dried oregano • 1/2 tsp. dried hot red pepper flakes • 1 tsp. salt • 1 Ib. medium-sized sweet potatoes • 3 Tbsp. vegetable oil
Directions 1. Coarsely grind all spices in coffee/spice grinder. (This yields a potent flavor, releasing the oils just before they're added to the other ingredients.) Add salt.
2. Cut potatoes lengthwise into 1"-wide wedges. Place them in a large mixing bowl. Toss them with the vegetable oil and spice mixture.
3. When well coated, place them in a single layer on a greased baking sheet.
4. Bake at 425° for 15 minutes. Turn them over and bake another 15 minutes, or until soft. Check the potatoes ever 5 minutes after you've turned them over to be sure they don't burn.
