Sweet Potato Fries
3 med.-size sweet potatoes or yams
1/2 cup oil Salt (opt.)
PANFRY METHOD: Peel potatoes (if desired); cut lengthwise into 1/2 inch thick French-fry strips. In
large skillet over medium heat, heat oil; panfry (in batches if necessary) until cooked through and
lightly browned, about 6 to 7 minutes. Using a slotted metal spoon or spatula, transfer French fries
as cooked to absorbent paper to drain. If desired, sprinkle with small amount of salt.
OVEN METHOD: Heat oven to 400 degrees. In large bowl, toss cut potatoes with 1/4 cup oil to coat
evenly. On 1 to 2 baking sheets, arrange in single layer; bake until golden on bottom, about 15
minutes. Using spatula or pancake turner, turn potatoes and bake until golden all over, about 15
additional minutes. Remove from oven; transfer to absorbent paper to drain. Makes 4 servings.
