If someone served me a sweet potato mash 6 -7 years ago, I would not have eaten it. I was a much much pickier eater back then. I would eat it now only if it was amply spiced or carry my own spices and herbs around to add to it if served. But Sweet potato fries are a different thing. Crispy caramelized and so good! Fried or baked, it is about the right amount of caramelization. Hence, these amazing baked fries today.
Oh and get a really good knife or some muscle power to slice those sweet potatoes into nice even and thin sticks. On another note I know what I am doing this spring, painting some new boards for background!
Serve these with the vegan chipotle ranch or plain ranch or with this Garlic Tahini dressing. Sweet potato fries are softer than regular fries, but they hold up great if thinly sliced and baked till they get brown edges. What’s your favorite way to serve Sweet potatoes.
