Crispy Sweet Potato Fries

[Rita]

Servings: 2

• 2 medium sweet potatoes
• Olive oil cooking spray
• Kosher salt
• Fresh ground black pepper
• Optional seasoning like cinnamon, chili powder

Cut peeled potatoes into 1/4 inch strips and spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet* coated with cooking oil spray. Mist the fries with cooking oil spray and season with salt, black pepper, or any other seasonings - ground cinnamon, curry powder, and chili powder are all good options.

Bake in a 400 degree oven for 20 minutes, flipping the fries halfway through. For extra crispy fries finish under the broiler for 5 minutes.

* COOKS NOTE: For easy clean up and no sticking, cover baking sheet with nonstick release foil.

Well I made 1 good serving of these fries, and wish that i had made more. The mixture, of the black paper cinnamon and salt was good. I could have cooked them for more than 18 minutes to crisp them up but i could not wait any longer. I also topped, them with a bit of chinese salt.

1 teaspoon salt

2. Clean sweet potatoes. Cut into 1/2-inch-thick strips, and place in a mixing bowl. Add oil and salt, stirring to coat.

Note: Watch Sweet Potato Fries more closely than ordinary potatoes -- the high natural sugar content burns more quickly and easily.
