Five spices, one sweet potato and a hot oven. Onion powder, garlic powder and paprika do more here than cinnamon and brown sugar ever did — these come out savoury enough to sit next to dinner rather than after it.
Four hundred and twenty-five degrees is high on purpose. Cut the cubes to a consistent half inch and give them room on the sheet; crowded, at a lower temperature, sweet potato steams in its own moisture and never takes on an edge.
Preheat oven to 425F.
Place sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and sprinkle with oil and spices. Toss with your bare hands, or with a pastry brush. Ensure all sweet potatoes are spread out in an even layer and are not on top of one another.
Bake for 25 minutes tossing gently after 15 min.
Remove from oven, let cool, and enjoy!
