Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium Sweet potatoes
- 2 medium White potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 1 small Garlic clove
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel and cut the sweet potatoes and white potatoes into 1-inch cubes for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the potato cubes with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the potatoes are golden brown and tender.
While the potatoes are roasting, prepare the cilantro cream by combining fresh cilantro, Greek yogurt, lime juice, one peeled garlic clove, and water in a blender or food processor.
Blend until smooth. If the mixture is too thick, add a bit more water, one teaspoon at a time, until it reaches a drizzle-able consistency.
Adjust the cilantro cream seasoning with a pinch of salt, if needed.
Once the potatoes are done roasting, transfer them to a serving dish.
Drizzle the cilantro cream over the warm potatoes and garnish with extra chopped cilantro, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy this vibrant and satisfying dish!
