ROASTED SWEET POTATO OVEN FRIES



Roasted Sweet Potato Oven Fries image

I don't know what I like best about these sweet wedges - the way the sweet potato skins crisp and caramelize, the creamy texture of the sweet flesh, or the subtle flavors of the spices and infused oil.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, lunch, quick, appetizer, side dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 inches lemon grass stalk, hard papery layers discarded, the rest coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon coarsely chopped ginger
Salt to taste
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 pounds orange-fleshed sweet potatoes, also sold as yams
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds, lightly toasted and coarsely ground
1/2 teaspoon coriander seeds, lightly toasted and coarsely ground

Steps:

  • Place the chopped lemon grass and ginger in a mortar and pestle and add a generous pinch of kosher salt. Pound and grind until you have obtained a coarse paste. Add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and work the ingredients together with the pestle. Scrape into a small saucepan and add the remaining olive oil. Stir together and bring to a very gentle sizzle over medium-low heat. Sizzle, shaking or swirling the pan often, for 2 minutes and turn off the heat. Allow the mixture to steep for 30 minutes. Strain into a large bowl, pressing the ginger and lemon grass against the strainer to extract all of the oil. You should have 3 tablespoons of oil. Add a little more olive oil if necessary.
  • Meanwhile preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment and brush the parchment with olive oil. Cut the sweet potatoes in half lengthwise. If they are very long, cut the halves in half crosswise as well. Cut each half into 4 long wedges - smaller sweet potatoes will yield 8 wedges, larger will yield 16.
  • Place the sweet potato wedges in the bowl with the oil. Add the ground cumin and coriander, and salt to taste, and toss together until the wedges are thoroughly coated with oil. Place on the baking sheet in a single layer (use 2 baking sheets if necessary). Place in the oven and set the timer for 10 minutes. Turn the wedges over and roast for another 10 minutes. Turn the wedges again and roast for another 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the wedges and how fast they are caramelizing. The wedges should be tender when pierced and there should be some caramelized bits, especially at the thin tips. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly before eating.

CRISPY YUCA FRIES



Crispy Yuca Fries image

Thanks to their superior fiber content and lower glycemic index, these crispy yuca fries are often presented as a healthier alternative to fried potatoes, but you might find the roles reversed. They really are that good and do a great job of bridging the gap between regular fried potatoes and sweet potato fries. Serve with ketchup or any kind of aioli.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Side Dish     Vegetables

Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 yuca (cassava) root
olive oil for frying

Steps:

  • Peel most of the yuca, trimming off the tough end. Cut yuca in thirds. Stand each section on its end and carefully cut lengthwise into quarters.
  • Place yuca in a saucepan of cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat to medium and simmer until just barely tender, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain yuca on a paper towel-lined plate. Let cool to room temperature.
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add yuca and fry until golden brown and crispy, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and let rest for a few minutes before serving.

SWEET POTATO AND YUCA OVEN FRIES



Sweet Potato and Yuca Oven Fries image

These oven baked fries are very flavorful. Fresh yuca (cassava) is really hard to peel so this recipe calls for frozen yucca. If you can't find frozen yucca, just use more sweet potatoes. Recipe is from Ingrid Hoffmann.

Provided by LifeIsGood

Categories     Potato

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

olive oil, divided (more if needed)
1/2 teaspoon chili powder, divided
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander, divided
coarse sea salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 -2 sweet potato, peeled and cut into 4 inch long and 1/4-1/2 inch thick fries
8 ounces cassava (buy 8 oz frozen yuca)
sour cream, for dipping (optional)
sweet chili sauce, for dipping (optional)

Steps:

  • Set one oven rack to the upper-middle position and one to the lower-middle position. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with aluminum foil.
  • Put the sweet potato fries in a large bowl and toss with 1 T of the olive oil, 1/4 t of the chile powder, 1/4 t of the coriander and some salt and pepper. Transfer the fries to a baking sheet and bake on the lower-middle rack until the sweet potato fries start to shrivel, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add the yucca and cook until tender, about 25 minutes, and then drain. Once the yucca is cool enough to handle, cut it into 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick fries.
  • Place the yuca fries in the large bowl and toss them with the remaining 1 T olive oil (add more if needed to coat them) and remainder of the chile powder, ground coriander and some more salt and pepper. Transfer the yuca to the second baking sheet. Move the sweet potatoes to the upper-middle rack and place the yuca on the lower-middle rack and bake for 10 minutes. Then turn both the sweet potatoes and yuca over and bake until golden crisp, 5 to 10 minutes more.
  • Serve accompanied by a bowl of sour cream and bowl of sweet chile sauce for dipping, if you like.

  • Toss the fries in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and pepper. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, paprika, or cumin.
  • Spread the fries in a single layer on a baking sheet. Don't overcrowd the pan, or the fries will not cook evenly.
  • Bake the fries at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
  • Serve the fries immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
