Ingredients:

  • 3 medium sweet potatoes, peeled (about 12 oz each)
  • 1 tbsp canola oil
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • salt and pepper

Directions:

  1. Adjust an oven rack to the middle position and heat the oven to 325. Cut each potato in half crosswise, then cut each half into 6 - 8 wedges. Arrange the wedges on a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet and bake until just tender, about 30 minutes. Transfer the rack (with the potatoes still on it) to the counter and let cool for 10 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, turn the oven to 475. Wipe off the baking sheet with paper towels and return it to the oven.
  3. Transfer the cooled potatoes to a large bowl. Gently stir in the oil, sugar, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper until the potatoes are well coated. Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Carefully arrange the potatoes in a single layer on the hot baking sheet and roast until deep golden brown, 15 - 20 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve.
