INGREDIENTS
Japanese sweet potato, scrubbed well and dried
Herbs such as mint, dill, cilantro, and/or parsley
Lemon juice

METHOD
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the sweet potato on the baking sheet and use a fork to poke holes throughout. Then, drizzle with avocado oil and season with fine grain sea salt. Use your hands to rub the oil and salt around the sweet potato. Then, roast in the oven for 40-60 minutes (depending on the size of your potato) or until tender.
Prepare the herb salad - in a bowl, add your herbs, a sprinkle of sumac, and lemon juice. Toss well.
Assemble - cut your sweet potato in half and generously drizzle with tahini. Sprinkle with flakey salt and top with the herb salad. Enjoy!
