4 servings
- 2 medium sweet potatoes (about 8 oz each)
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, plus more for rubbing
- 2 tbsp tahini
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
- ½ tsp ground ginger
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Ingredient noteDried black pepper can sometimes contain mold toxins, but the trace amount used here is so small that it is likely tolerated by many. When possible, use a recently purchased organic spice and store it tightly closed in a cool, dry place. If you prefer to always avoid black pepper, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp pumpkin seeds (pepitas), raw
For the topping
- 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil (for toasting seeds)
For serving
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Rub the sweet potatoes all over with a thin film of olive oil and place them on the prepared baking sheet.

Roast the sweet potatoes for 45–50 minutes, until a fork slides through the thickest part with no resistance and the skins are slightly wrinkled. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes — just enough to handle.
