Ingredients

2 large sweet potatoes (about 500g / 1 lb), peeled and cut into thin strips

2 tbsp olive oil

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

1/2 tsp smoked paprika

1/4 tsp garlic powder

How Do You Cook It?

Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 220°C (425°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Prepare the Sweet Potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato strips with olive oil, salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and garlic powder until well-coated.

Bake: Spread the fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure not to overcrowd them (use two sheets if necessary for crispier results). Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

Serve: Let the fries cool slightly before serving.

Tips & Tricks

Even Slices: Cut the fries as evenly as possible for uniform cooking.

Extra Crispiness: Sprinkle a little cornstarch on the fries before baking.

Serving Suggestions

Serve the baked sweet potato fries with a side of ketchup, garlic aioli, or spicy mayo for dipping.

Freezing and Reheating

Freezing: Freeze raw, cut fries on a baking sheet, then transfer to a bag. Bake from frozen for 30-35 minutes.

Reheating: Reheat in a 200°C (400°F) oven for 10 minutes to restore crispiness.
