Roasted Sweet Potato Wedges with Smoked Chilli Cream

These roasted sweet potato wedges with smoked chilli cream offer a vibrant update to a classic side dish. The natural sweetness of the red-skinned potatoes is enhanced by earthy ground cumin, while roasting them at a high temperature ensures a crisp exterior and a fluffy middle. It is a colourful, vegetarian-friendly option that brings a touch of smoky heat to the table, making it an excellent accompaniment to grilled halloumi or as a standalone snack for sharing.

This simple recipe relies on a few high-quality ingredients to deliver maximum flavour. The cooling soured cream, sharpened with fresh lime and spicy chipotle, provides the perfect contrast to the spiced wedges. Because the dipping sauce can be prepared a day in advance, it is a stress-free choice for effortless entertaining or a quick midweek treat.
