Curry roasted sweet potatoes

Roasted sweet potatoes flavored with curry spices and roasted until soft, sweet and slighly caramelized is a delicious and easy side dish recipe.

Roasted sweet potatoes have been one of my favorite side dishes for the longest time. Sweet potatoes are always a good idea in my book but when they are flavored with aromatic spices and roasted. Woah mama. They are the perfect side dish to curry and chicken. I also love serving them on seasoned plain yogurt with fresh coriander (cilantro) and sliced chillies. This makes it a delicious addition to a harvest table style lunch and a great vegetarian main.
