Sweet Potato Fries Recipe

Try the Sweet Potato Fries recipe either salted or sweetened with a little cinnamon and sugar. Either way, they're an unusual finger food treat or side dish, and a real crowd-pleaser.

Sweet Potato French Fries

4 large sweet potatoes (not yams)
Oil for deep frying
Salt to taste

Directions:

Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into fries about 3/8" thick.

Fry in batches in hot oil (375°) until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels, salt to taste and serve.

Tip: Soaking the cut fries in ice water for about 30 minutes (and then patting them dry) prior to frying them greatly reduces the starch content and keeps the fries from sticking together while cooking.

Option:
Mix 2 tablespoons sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon together with a pinch of salt and sprinkle over the fries.
