Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the sweet potato cubes with 2 tbsp olive oil and 1/2 tsp salt on a large rimmed baking sheet, spreading them in a single layer with space between pieces. Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until the edges are caramelized and a fork slides in without resistance.

While the sweet potatoes roast, combine the rice, water, and 1/4 tsp salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to the lowest setting, cover tightly, and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
