Sweet potato rounds roasted until golden and caramelized at the edges make a surprisingly satisfying base for a bold, punchy sauce — no bread required. The ginger-scallion topping comes together quickly on the stovetop, with softened scallions, fresh ginger, coconut aminos, apple cider vinegar, and a touch of turmeric creating something loose, glossy, and deeply savory. Carrageenan is a common additive lurking in processed sauces, plant-based products, and even some coconut-based items, so building everything from scratch here means you stay completely clear of it without any label-reading stress. Every single ingredient in this recipe is whole and straightforward — coconut oil, fresh aromatics, and a handful of pantry staples that you can actually trust. The turmeric gives the sauce a warm golden hue that looks stunning spooned over those caramelized rounds, and a scatter of fresh cilantro on top makes it feel genuinely restaurant-worthy. This is the kind of dish that works as an appetizer, a light lunch, or a snack board centerpiece — and it comes together with almost no effort.

Slice the sweet potatoes crosswise into rounds about 1/2 inch thick — you should get roughly 12 rounds total. Arrange them in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, brush both sides with the 2 tbsp melted coconut oil, and season with the sea salt.
