Steps:

• Combine the spices in a small bowl (cumin, garlic powder, salt and red pepper). Mix.
• Put the sweet potato slices in a medium bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat. Sprinkle with the spices and toss to coat evenly.
• Heat a stove-top grill or a large skillet over medium high heat. Remove briefly from heat, coat with cooking spray, and return to the heat. (The original recipe called for a grill, but I just use a skillet.).
• Place sweet potato slices in the skillet, flipping occasionally, so that they are grilled crispy on both sides. They take about 10 minutes to cook as long as they are properly sliced to a thin 1/4-inch thickness.
• When cooked, places in a serving bowl and sprinkle with the cilantro, if using. (The first several times I made this I had no cilantro, so did without. In the meantime I've made it with cilantro a few times, but it is just fine without it if you don't have any.).

Steps:

• Make the dipping sauce: Stir together soy sauce, vinegar, and sesame oil in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Make the sweet potato wedges: Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Toss sweet potatoes with oil and salt in a large bowl. Arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast, turning once, until tender and slightly browned, about 20 minutes. Transfer to serving dish; immediately sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve with dipping sauce.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, green onions, toasted sesame seeds and toasted sesame oil. Stir until honey dissolves.

Steps:

• Cut two pieces of heavy duty foil, about 18 X 12 inches; place a potato half onto each piece of foil.
• Spread cut side with butter.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Fold foil over potatoes and seal tightly.
• Grill covered, over medium hot heat for 50 minutes, or until tender, turning once.
• To serve, fluff potatoes with a fork and drizzle with honey.

Steps:

• Slice and split your sweet potatoes and apple between two tinfoil packages (two strips of tinfoil folded together).
• Top each with half the butter and brown sugar and a few dashes of cinnamon (optional).
• Close the tinfoil packages and put on the grill on medium/low heat for approximately 40 minutes, turning half way through.
• Make sure you don't burn, brown sugar doesn't taste good burnt.
