Roasted butternut squash and sweet potato

Delicious cubes of sweet potato, coated in spices, garlic and lime juice and roasted in the oven for just 20 minutes, these Mexican Roasted Sweet Potato Cubes make a delicious side dish for tacos, fajitas and BBQs. Roasted butternut squash and sweet potato was originally inspired to make my roasted sweet potatoes cube shaped on my trip to Wahaca back in October. The sweet potato cubes were one of my favourite parts of the meal.

The spice mix itself is delicious, but smother it on little cubes of sweet potato and roast in a hot oven for 20 minutes and you have yourself something rather wonderful! Mix together the cumin, paprika, chilli, salt, garlic, olive oil and lime juice in a large bowl. Add the cubes of sweet potato and stir to coat thoroughly. Roast in the oven for 20 minutes. I have found that if you use a good non stick  baking sheet, the cubes don’t need turning throughout their cooking time, but if you are at all worried do give them a check after 10 minutes and turn them if you think necessary.
