The first time I tried these sweet potato wedges, I was blown away by how good they actually tasted. This recipe will definitely spice up your regular potatoes! They have a golden brown color on the outside and a creamy and tender texture, making them irresistibly addicting. You can eat them as is, but they are so much better with a dip. There are tons of dipping sauce recipes that you can try, but I suggest you go for a creamy garlic yogurt dipping sauce. The recipe is listed below too. Serve it on gatherings, holidays, or parties.
