For your next home cooked meal, consider preparing a pan of oven roasted potatoes to pair with a satisfying main dish. This side is made up of a mix of baked white and sweet potatoes along with tasty carrots.

The Perfect Side Dish: Oven Roasted Potatoes

Oven roasted potatoes are one of those delicious comfort foods that instantly bring me to a happy place. Most often prepared on the weekend when there is more time to cook and more time to enjoy a hearty, satisfying meal with the family.

Mixing the sweet potatoes together with regular white potatoes gives a balance taste and texture. And the carrots are also a nice addition although not entirely necessary if you don’t have them on hand.

How Long to Roast a Mix of White and Sweet Potatoes?

Sweet potatoes do take less time to cook through and will soften quicker than white potatoes. However, both types of potatoes can be baked together for the same amount of time. When checking if potatoes are fully cooked, be sure to pierce the white potatoes (and not just the sweet potatoes) with a fork. If it pierces through the potato with ease, then they are ready to eat.
