Sweet Potato Fries
This recipe for Crispy Sweet Potatoes Fries is actually baked not fried. Although you could use oil, most restaurants either bake them or use an air-fryer. Healthier that way. This Recipe first appeared in the New York Times.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds sweet potatoes peeled
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Heat the oven and pans (optional) to 400.
- Cut the sweet potatoes into sticks ¼ to ½ inch wide and 3 inches long and toss them with the oil.
- Mix the spices, salt and pepper in a small bowl, and toss them with the sweet potatoes. Spread them out on 2 rimmed baking sheets
- Bake until brown and crisp on the bottom, about 15 minutes, then flip and cook until the other side is crisp, about 10 minutes. Serve hot
Notes
Preheating the pan will aid in the crispiness of the fries.
