  • 2 tablespoons tahini
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 0.5 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground cumin

Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  2. Poke holes all over sweet potatoes with a fork.
  3. Roast sweet potatoes in the preheated oven until soft, about 45 minutes; let cool. Cut sweet potatoes in half lengthwise.
