SWEET POTATO FRIES RECIPE - NYT COOKING



Sweet Potato Fries Recipe - NYT Cooking image

These addictive seasoned "fries" from Mark Bittman are actually baked, but we promise you won't miss the grease. The spice mix – garlic powder, paprika, salt and black pepper – can be used on regular potatoes as well (you'll just need to increase the baking time a bit).

Provided by Mark Bittman

Total Time 35 minutes

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400.
  • Cut the sweet potatoes into sticks 1/4 to 1/2 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.
