Recipe: Baked Sweet Potato Fries with a Honey Lime Dip
From: Our Best Bites
Ingredients:
  • 2 medium sized sweet potatoes
  • 2 T extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 t cumin
  • 1/2 t oregano
  • 1/2 t coriander
  • 1 t kosher salt
  • 1 t parsley
  • fresh ground paper to taste
Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Spray a cookie sheet lightly with cooking spray.
  2. Slice your sweet potatoes into french fry shape and size. About 1/4" (maybe a tad bigger). Check out this site for a picture guide on cutting the fries.
  3. Put the sweet potatoes in a bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Use your hands to make sure they are evenly coated.
  4. Add all the herbs and spices and continue to toss until well coated.
  5. Place in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. No opening the oven door! Not even for a quick peak!
  6. After 15 minutes, take them out and flip them. Be careful as they may be a little soggy at this point.
  7. Continue to cook for another 15 - 20 minutes. Take out of the oven and serve immediately.
