My family loves sweet potatoes, so I thought this recipe would be a no-brainer. I decided this would be a more accepted recipe to my family, in light of the last fiasco that ended in virtual tears and literal plates still full of cauliflower.
Naturally, I changed things up a bit from the original recipe. First off, I found that one sweet potato was plenty for a family of four with two small children. Once I cut the sweet potato into sticks, I realized that two sweet potatoes, as the original recipe calls for, would provide a huge amount of sweet potato sticks.
I preheated the oven to 425, as the recipe stated, and seasoned with sea salt, paprika, cumin, and oregano. I felt that oregano didn't match with the rest of the herbs, but in the end it tasted okay. The one problem that I did find with this recipe is that the sticks didn't get crispy like my family likes. We still enjoyed them, but if I had used the convection feature on my oven, we would have had the preferred consistency.
