# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • Everything roasts together on one pan, which means you can pour yourself coffee while the oven handles dinner duties.
  • The sweet potatoes and oranges create this unexpected sweet-savory dance that tastes way more complicated than it actually is.
  • It's naturally vegetarian, gluten-free, and flexible enough to feed a crowd or just yourself with leftovers.
02 -
  • Don't add the oranges at the beginning or they'll collapse into mush and turn everything soggy—wait until the last roast so they stay chunky and juicy.
  • If your sweet potatoes are massive, dice them smaller than you think you should so they cook through in the time frame.
03 -
  • Cut all your vegetables roughly the same size so they finish roasting at the same moment and nothing gets overcooked or undercooked.
  • Don't move things around constantly during the first roast—let them sit so they develop those caramelized edges that make roasting worth doing.
