Essential Ingredients
- Sweet potatoes, as many as you’d like to eat
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the sweet potatoes you want to roast. You can adjust the quantity based on your family size or personal preference. 🙂 Choosing sweet potatoes of similar size, rather than very large or small ones, will help them cook more evenly.
Step 2
Thoroughly wash the prepared sweet potatoes under running water to remove any dirt or debris. Since you’ll be eating the skin, it’s especially important to wash them well. If there are any bruised spots, you can gently trim them off with a knife.
Step 3
Next, line your baking sheet with parchment paper. This prevents the sweet potatoes from sticking or burning onto the pan and makes cleanup a breeze. Arrange the sweet potatoes attractively on the parchment paper.
Step 4
Place the sweet potatoes in the oven and bake at 200-210°C (approximately 400-410°F) for 50 minutes to 1 hour, without preheating. The baking time may vary depending on your oven’s specifications, so check the doneness of the sweet potatoes periodically and adjust as needed. They are done when a skewer or fork pierces them easily.
Step 5
Voila! After about an hour, your warm, steamy, and incredibly sweet oven-roasted sweet potatoes are ready! It really is that simple, isn’t it? Freshly roasted sweet potatoes are a fantastic snack on their own. ㅎㅎ
Step 6
Sweet potatoes roasted in the oven develop a slightly chewy texture on the outside and a soft, moist, honey-like sweetness inside due to the high heat and prolonged cooking. They taste even better when paired with well-fermented kimchi or a glass of cold milk! Enjoy making and savoring these healthy and delicious roasted sweet potatoes! 🙂
