Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to get it ready for roasting.
- Wash and peel the potatoes and sweet potatoes.
- Cut them into evenly sized chunks, approximately 1 to 1.5 inches each, to ensure even cooking.
- Peel and dice the onion into smaller pieces.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the potato chunks, sweet potato chunks, and diced onion.
- Add the coconut oil to the bowl. If the coconut oil is solid, you may need to melt it first in the microwave or on the stovetop for easier mixing.
- Sprinkle in the dried oregano, dried thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper.
- Using your hands or a large spoon, mix everything together thoroughly so that the potatoes and sweet potatoes are evenly coated with oil and herbs.
- Spread the vegetable mixture in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure the potatoes roast properly and become crispy.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven.
- Roast for 45-50 minutes, or until the potatoes and sweet potatoes are tender and golden brown. Stir halfway through the cooking time to promote even roasting.
- Use a fork or knife to check if the potatoes and sweet potatoes are cooked through. They should be tender and easy to pierce.
- Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly.
- Transfer the roasted potatoes and sweet potatoes to a serving dish and serve hot.
Tips:
- Ensure that the potatoes and sweet potatoes are cut into evenly sized pieces to allow for uniform cooking.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) for optimal roasting conditions.
- Melt the coconut oil before tossing it with the potatoes and herbs to ensure even coating.
- Spread the potato and sweet potato pieces in a single layer on the baking sheet to avoid overcrowding, which can lead to steaming rather than roasting.
- Stir the vegetables halfway through the cooking time to promote uniform browning and crispiness.
- Use fresh herbs if possible for a more vibrant flavor.
- For an added touch, consider garnishing with fresh parsley or a squeeze of lemon juice before serving.
