Delicious baked, mashed, steamed or roasted, we like sweet potatoes best in wedge-form

<p>Sweet potatoes seem to have gone more mainstream in the last few years, appearing (mostly in chip-form) in American restaurants across the country. You can buy them <a href="https://groceries.asda.com/product/jacket-potatoes-wedges/aunt-bessies-2-oven-baked-sweet-potato-jackets/910002356654" target="_blank">ready-baked</a>, <a href="https://groceries.asda.com/product/prepared-vegetables/asda-sweet-potato-mash/910002646624" target="_blank">mashed</a>, <a href="https://groceries.asda.com/product/vegetables/asda-scratch-cook-sweet-potato-chunks/910002344908" target="_blank">diced</a> or in <a href="https://groceries.asda.com/product/foods-of-the-world/asda-sweet-potato-fritters/910002378223" target="_blank">fritters</a>, if you can't be bothered to peel and chop them yourself.</p><p>Personally, we like to eat them in big chunky wedges. But how best to season them? Here are a few tasty ideas...<br> </p><h2 style="text-align: center;"><img alt="sweet-potato-wedges-herby-dip__square" class="ci-image ci-square" src="https://ui3.assets-asda.com/dm/sweet-potato-wedges-herby-dip__square_GL?scl=1"></h2><h2>1. The simple way</h2><p>For simple sweet potato wedges, scrub and slice into chunky wedges &ndash; no need to peel. Cook in a hot oven for 40-50mins, turning half way through. Serving suggestions &ndash; great in a traybake with chicken drumsticks or to make delicious loaded wedges that count towards your 5-a-day count. These are spot-on <a href="https://www.asda.com/good-living/recipe/pork-burgers-with-sweet-potato-wedges" target="_blank">served alongside a juicy burger</a>. </p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="pork-burgers-with-sweet-potato-wedges__square" class="ci-image ci-square" src="https://ui3.assets-asda.com/dm/pork-burgers-with-sweet-potato-wedges__square_GL?scl=1"></p><h2>2. With a dip</h2><p>For a spicy, zippy kick, toss raw sweet potato wedges in harissa paste and a squeeze of lemon. Serve with a cooling yogurt dip. For family favourite garlic herb wedges, mix together a crushed clove of garlic, some chopped parsley and a pinch of rosemary or thyme.<br><br>Stir into the wedges and drizzle with a little rapeseed oil and plenty of black pepper before roasting.
