Sweet potato rounds roasted until caramelized and golden make the most satisfying base for a sauce that's bright, warming, and deeply savory all at once. The ginger-scallion topping comes together quickly on the stovetop — softened scallions and fresh ginger bloom in coconut oil before getting a glossy finish from coconut aminos, apple cider vinegar, and a pinch of turmeric. Every ingredient here is chosen with a sensitive digestive system in mind, leaning on whole, minimally processed foods and skipping common irritants like gluten, soy, and refined oils. Coconut aminos bring that umami depth you'd expect from soy sauce without the gut-disrupting downsides, and apple cider vinegar adds a gentle tang that keeps the sauce lively. The sweet potatoes themselves are a gut-friendly powerhouse — naturally rich in fiber and easy to digest when roasted low and slow until fully tender. A scatter of fresh cilantro at the end lifts the whole dish with a little herbal brightness. This one works just as well as a light meal as it does a shareable appetizer, and it comes together with almost no fuss.

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
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.
