Why Spiced Sweet Potatoes?
Spiced Sweet Potatoes are not just a treat for your palate; they're packed with health benefits. Sweet potatoes are a great source of fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants. The addition of crispy sage not only adds a unique flavor but also provides beneficial compounds. Ghee, a clarified butter, brings richness and a hint of nuttiness, making this dish both nutritious and comforting.
