Preparation

Set the rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 425 °F (220 °C). Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato cubes with the olive oil and the herbes de Provence. Season lightly with salt.
Spread the cubes on the pan in a single layer, not touching. Roast 35 to 40 minutes, without ever flipping them, until the edges are deeply browned and a fork slides in without resistance.
Transfer the cubes to a serving dish and let rest 5 minutes.
Grate the lemon zest over them, add the parmesan, then finish with flaky salt and a good grind of pepper. Serve right away.
