Ingredients

For the sweet potato fries:
2 large sweet potatoes (or 3 medium), cut into about 1 inch wide wedges
1 ½ tablespoons toasted sesame oil (regular sesame oil or olive oil also works)
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper
For the Yogurt Curry Dip:
1/3 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon curry powder
2 teaspoons fresh lime or orange juice
1 teaspoon pure maple syrup
⅛ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon water to thin dip, if necessary
Optional: pinch of cayenne pepper
To garnish:
Fresh cilantro
Sesame seeds

Instructions

Preheat grill to 375 degrees F or medium heat. In a large bowl toss sweet potato wedges, sesame oil, garlic powder, and salt.
Make the dip by combining the yogurt, curry powder, lime juice, maple syrup, salt and cayenne in a small bowl. Place in the fridge until you are ready to serve.
Once the grill is preheated, place the sweet potato wedges on the grill and cook about 4-5 minutes on each side. They should get nice grill marks; make sure you watch closely so that the fries do not burn.
Once done, transfer to a plate and garnish with sesame seeds and fresh cilantro.
Serve with the yogurt curry dip.
