Ingredients
- 800 g Sweet potatoes
- 3 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 tsp Sweet paprika powder
- 1 tsp Ground cumin
- Salt
- Pepper
- 1 tbsp Honey
- 200 g Yogurt (10% fat)
- 1 pc Lime
- 1 pinch Chili flakes
- 1 bunch Fresh coriander
Method
- Wash the sweet potatoes, cut them unpeeled into wedges about 1.5 cm thick and toss them in a bowl with 2 tbsp olive oil, paprika powder, cumin, salt and pepper.
- Prepare the grill for medium heat, about 180 °C. Pre-cook the sweet potato wedges for about 5 minutes by wrapping them briefly in aluminum foil or a grill tray, or by boiling them in a little water for 5 minutes until al dente and then draining them.
- Grill the wedges on the grill grate or in a grill tray for about 12 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until they have charred, roasted edges on the outside and are soft inside.
- During the last few minutes, mix the honey with the remaining olive oil and brush the wedges with it so they caramelize.
- Halve the lime and squeeze one half. Stir the yogurt with the lime juice, some grated lime zest, chili flakes and salt.
- Wash the coriander, chop it finely and stir it into the yogurt. Serve the sweet potatoes warm with the lime and chili yogurt.
