These make for a yummmmmy little side dish that Adam and I are now addicted to. A great way to get those good vitamins from a sweet potato without all the sugar of our Gramma's delicious holiday yam recipe. The spicy ketchup sends the fries just right over the top-- the combo is amazing.
For just Adam and I, we use one sweet potato-- but the recipe calls for 5.
Slice the potatoes into fry sized cuts-- I like mine long and skinny, some like them like steak fries, totally your preference.
Put fries in a bowl and pour a little olive oil (only enough to coat the yams) and a few pinches of salt. Toss them around until totally coated.
Lay them out on a cookie sheet in a single layer
Bake at 400 for 10-15 minutes until golden-- then pull out, flip and put back in for another 10-15 minutes.
While the fries are baking, put several tablespoons of ketchup in a small serving bowl and mix with a few splashes of Tabasco.
When the fries finish, let cool and dip in spicy ketchup. The fries should be just the right amount of crunchy, soft and chewy. The natural sweet flavor of the sweet potato with the salty olive oil coating dipped in the spicy ketchup is sooo delicious!
Enjoy!
