If you're tired of serving the same ole shoestring fries, tater tots, and mashed potatoes and feel that your dinner plate needs an added bit of color then roasting Southern Roasted Sweet Potato Fries might just fit just in perfectly on your menu.
Southern Roasted Sweet Potato Fries
Ingredients:
3 sweet potatoes, unpeeled and cut into 1/4-inch slices
1/4 cup olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon coriander
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 lime, cut into 4 wedges
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a pan and set aside.
Place the sweet potatoes in a large mixing bowl. In a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the oil, garlic, salt, coriander, cayenne, and pepper. Shake to emulsify and pour over the sweet potatoes, tossing to evenly coat.
Spread the potatoes in a single layer in the prepared pan. Drizzle any leftover oil mixture from the bowl over the potatoes.
Bake 45 minutes or until tender. Immediately squeeze the lime wedges and drizzle with the juice. Serve hot.
Yield: 6 servings
