These roasted sweet potato rounds are the kind of appetizer or snack that disappears fast — caramelized at the edges, tender in the center, and loaded with a punchy ginger-scallion sauce that brings serious flavor with minimal effort. The sauce comes together in just a few minutes on the stovetop, with coconut aminos, apple cider vinegar, fresh ginger, and turmeric creating something glossy, savory, and just a little bright. Everything here is plant-based and naturally free of meat, so it fits a pescatarian lifestyle without any substitutions or workarounds — just genuinely good ingredients doing their thing. Coconut oil does double duty, both roasting the sweet potatoes to golden perfection and forming the base of that fragrant scallion sauce. A scatter of fresh cilantro at the end adds a pop of color and a herby lift that ties the whole plate together. Serve these straight from the oven while the sauce is still warm and the edges are still crisp — they're the kind of thing that makes people ask for the recipe before they've even finished the first bite.

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.
