Mexican Rice Bowl

First, preheat the oven to 220 °C, prepare a baking sheet and line it with parchment paper.

Wash the sweet potatoes and cut them into cubes (approx. 2 cm × 2 cm). Place the sweet potato cubes on the prepared baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of oil, season with salt and pepper, and mix. Place the prepared sweet potatoes into the preheated oven and bake for 25⁠–⁠30 minutes at 210⁠–⁠220 °C.

Meanwhile, cook the rice: Rinse it, place it in a medium-sized pot, pour in 300 ml of water, and bring to a boil over high heat. Once the water starts boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot with a lid, and cook the rice for 12⁠–⁠15 minutes.
