Mouth-Watering Purple Sweet Potato Fries

Basic Information

Description

Ingredients

• 1 ½ lbs purple sweet potatoes (1 very large or 2 medium)
• 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (can sub avocado oil)
• 1 tsp garlic salt (can sub garlic powder to decrease sodium)
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• Flaky sea salt (for serving)
• For dipping sauce: 3 tbsp plain Greek yogurt, 3 tbsp ketchup, and ¼ tsp smoked paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

Step 2: Scrub potatoes clean and peel. Leave skin on if you want extra crispy fries. Cut potatoes into ¼-inch sticks.

Step 3: Transfer sliced potatoes onto lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and mix with hands until coated.

Step 4: Sprinkle paprika and garlic salt on fries. Mix with hands again. Spread fries out in a single layer on baking sheet and make sure they don't overlap.

Step 5: Bake in oven for 15 minutes. Use tongs or a spatula to flip fries over. Return to oven for another 10-15 minutes until lightly browned.

Step 6: In the meantime, whisk together dipping sauce ingredients to make a delicious sauce.

Step 7: Serve fries warm with your sauce and sprinkled with flaky sea salt. Bon appetit!

Cooking Tips

• Be careful not to overcook your potatoes or they may dry out!
• Line your baking sheet with parchment paper/a silicone mat to prevent potatoes from sticking.
• If using a rimless baking sheet, decrease your baking time by a few minutes. Regardless, always check your fries every 5 minutes after flipping!
• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. Reheat in an oiled skillet over medium-low heat.
