Categories     easy, side dish

Time 40m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 pounds sweet potatoes
1/4 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons paprika, sweet, hot or a combination
1 tablespoon coarse or kosher salt
1 teaspoon cumin seeds, toasted
1 teaspoon coriander seeds, toasted
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Cut the skins off the sweet potatoes, squaring off the round sides to make each potato into a large rectangle. Cut into long fries about 1/4-inch thick and 1 inch wide. (If not using potatoes immediately, soak in water for up to 1 day. Drain and pat dry before cooking.)
  • Put two large sheet pans in the oven to heat. Toss the potatoes, and skins if you like, with oil, paprika and 2 teaspoons of the salt. Arrange in one layer on the hot pans. (Don't use parchment paper; it will make the potatoes soggy.) Roast until tender and starting to brown on the bottom, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, grind the cumin, coriander and 1 teaspoon salt together. Mix in the brown sugar.
  • Remove pans from the oven and raise the heat to 450 degrees, or set to broil. With a spatula, carefully loosen the fries and turn each one over. Sprinkle with the spice and sugar mixture. Return to the oven and bake just until the fries are blistered and sizzling vigorously, about another 5 minutes. (If your oven has a convection feature, use it.) Do not overcook, or the fries will become leathery. Cool slightly.

4 sweet potatoes
2 teaspoons garam masala
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

  • Soak the potatoes in water: Soaking the potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking helps to remove excess starch and results in crispier fries.
  • Dry the potatoes thoroughly: Before cooking, make sure to pat the potatoes dry with a paper towel. Excess moisture can prevent the fries from becoming crispy.
  • Season the potatoes well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, and other desired seasonings to flavor the fries. You can also add a drizzle of olive oil for extra flavor.
  • Cook the fries in hot oil: For the best results, cook the fries in hot oil (375°F) in a large skillet or deep fryer. Make sure to overcrowd the pan, as this will lower the oil temperature and result in soggy fries.
  • Flip the fries halfway through cooking: To ensure even cooking, flip the fries halfway through the cooking time.
