  My husband hates sweet potato so I thought I'd give these a try to see if I could change his mind - it worked! He loved the flavour and only at the end realised that they were sweet potato!! They were really simple to make and work particularly well with barbecued meats and salads in the summer. Will definitely be making these again!

  The perfect compliment to a main meal or a great snack on the side. I left them in the oven a bit longer to let them crisp up even more! I cooked them with Mary's Maple and Orange Chicken. My guests were so impressed.

  For me the potatoes took so long to cook, next time I might try part boiling them and then crisping them up in the oven.

  Served this as a recommended side to Cajun chicken gumbo. Super side and I am planning to cook it as a Bar B Que accompaniment through the Summer, now it seems to have arrived.

  Love these! A great side dish to replace chips! Mine were a little on the soggy side though.

  I tried sweet potato wedges for the first time last week - amazing!! I actually prefer them to normal potatoes, and adding abit of spice (i used chili powder) just improves them further...bit of mayo on the side...YUM!
