Baked sweet potato fries with garlic, paprika, and parsley are a healthy and delicious alternative to traditional fries. They are easy to prepare, full of flavor, and make a great side dish or snack. This recipe uses simple ingredients to create fries that are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into thin fries, approximately 1/4-inch thick. Try to keep the size consistent for even cooking.
In a large bowl, combine the cornstarch, garlic powder, paprika, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to distribute the seasonings evenly.
Add the sweet potato fries to the bowl and toss them well to ensure they are evenly coated with the cornstarch mixture.
Drizzle the coconut oil over the coated sweet potatoes. Toss again to make sure each fry is lightly coated with oil. This will help them crisp up in the oven.
Spread the sweet potato fries out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Make sure they are not touching or overlapping, as this will help them bake evenly and get crispy.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake for 20 minutes, then remove the baking sheet from the oven and carefully flip the fries over using a spatula. Return the sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the fries are crispy and golden brown.
Once done, remove the fries from the oven and let them cool slightly for a few minutes. Serve warm as a delicious side dish or snack.
Tips:
- Make sure to cut the sweet potatoes into uniform sizes to ensure even cooking.
- Soaking the sweet potato wedges in cold water for at least 30 minutes can help them become crispier when baked.
- Toss the sweet potatoes in cornstarch before adding the oil and seasonings to help achieve a crispy exterior.
- Arrange the sweet potato fries in a single layer on the baking sheet to avoid overcrowding, which can cause them to steam rather than bake.
- Flip the fries halfway through baking to ensure they are evenly cooked on all sides.
Enjoy your baked sweet potato fries with garlic, paprika, and parsley as a nutritious and tasty treat. They pair well with a variety of dipping sauces and are sure to be a hit with family and friends. Whether you serve them as a side dish or a snack, these fries are sure to satisfy your cravings.
