Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 1 pound sweet potatoes
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons orange juice
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Pepper
Instructions
- 1
Preheat oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 Celsius).
- 2
Peel and cut the potatoes in pieces (as noted above).
- 3
In a large bowl mix the sweet potatoes with the olive oil, salt and pepper (I usually mix with my hands).
- 4
Spread the potatoes in one layer in a pan. Add a small clove of garlic cut in half.
- 5
Pour the orange juice in one corner and tilt the pan so it goes everywhere.
- 6
Add 3-4 tablespoons of boiling water again in the corner and tilt the pan. Do not just pour the water or juice over the potatoes, that will rinse off the oil.
- 7
Roast for about 20 minutes and then lower the temperature to about 320 Fahrenheit (160 Celsius) and roast for another 30-40 minutes.
