ASIAN STREET FRIES
Steps:
- Cut the potatoes in 3/8-inch slices. Then stack cut pieces of potatoes and cut them into 3/8-inch square pieces. Submerge the potatoes in a large bowl of water and let sit for 30 minutes. This will help leach the excess starch from the potatoes and keep them from oxidizing.
- While potatoes are soaking, prepare the sauce: Combine all ingredients in a nonreactive pan and heat over medium-high. Adjust heat to a simmer and reduce by half.
- Heat a heavy stock pot with the oil to 325 degrees F over medium heat. (Use a candy thermometer to check the temperature.) Remove potatoes from the water and pat dry. Carefully add 2 handfuls of potatoes to the hot oil. There should be at least 1-inch of oil above the potatoes. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes or until potatoes are light brown. Remove potatoes, with a slotted spoon, shake off excess oil and place on a rack to cool. Repeat until all of the potatoes are par-cooked.
- After all the potatoes have been par-cooked, heat oil up to 350 degrees F over medium heat. Add 2 handfuls of par-cooked potatoes, and cook for 2 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oil, with a slotted spoon, shake off excess oil. Transfer potatoes to a serving bowl and season lightly with salt and pepper. Repeat this method until all potatoes are fried.
- To serve: Drizzle sauce over hot fries and garnish with toasted sesame seeds.

ASIAN SWEET POTATO FRIES
On a night when I had very little in the house I pieced this recipe together as a side dish to go with some Asian-style chicken. I used ground ginger, but I'm sure it would be even better with fresh. Not spicy despite the chili powder, but add more if you like things hotter. These are not very crispy like regular fries, but still made a nice side dish.

Tips:
- Use sweet potatoes that are firm and smooth, without any blemishes or bruises.

- Dry the sweet potato fries thoroughly before cooking. This will help to prevent them from sticking together.
- Use a high-quality oil for frying the sweet potato fries. Coconut oil or avocado oil are both good choices.

- Cook the sweet potato fries until they are golden brown and crispy. This will take about 5-7 minutes.
- Season the sweet potato fries with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings while they are still hot.
- Serve the sweet potato fries immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
