Sweet Potato Fries

I was a fan of sweet potato fries way before they became a cool trendy substitute for french fries. Even though I’ve always loved them, it wasn’t until recently that I started to make my own. Its so much easier than I thought and it doesn’t take that long.

All you need is 1 or 2 sweet potatoes and some salt and/or season salt. Yall know how much I love my Tony Chacheres so I used that.

I boiled one sweet potato just for a few minutes so that the skin would peel off easily. Preheat the oven at 450. After peeling, cut the potato in half and then in quarters. Then, I cut the quarters in thin slices.

Spray or grease the foil with olive oil or vegetable oil before spreading the fries on (I have an olive oil spray). Then I sprayed the fries and sprinkled with salt and seasoning.

I put them in the oven for about 15 to 20 min (it might have been less).

They came out great! I apologize for not getting a proper photo, I forgot to take a picture of them on the plate. Serve with ketchup or whatever you like on sweet potato fries  and enjoy!
