ROASTED SPICY SWEET POTATOES



Roasted Spicy Sweet Potatoes image

from Gourmet magazine via smittenkitchen.com. The original recipe called for 1 teaspoon of kosher salt, but I thought that was a bit too much--you may want to revert to the original amount. I roasted my potatoes at 350 degrees for an hour, turning them after one half hour.
