ABOUT Crispy sweet potatos fries RECIPE

When sweet potatoes really come into their own is when they’re cut into wedges and baked into crispy fries. Seasoned with paprika, these fries are spiced and sweet all at once, and far healthier than the shop-bought ones. Plus, they’re a real favourite with the kids, so get them to help you make them, too.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 200ºC/400ºF/gas 6. Wash 2 large sweet potatoes under cold running water, scrubbing well with a scrubber to get rid of any dirt (there’s no need to peel them)
Cut each sweet potato in half lengthways, cut each half in half lengthways, then each piece in half again so you end up with 8 wedges
Add to a large mixing bowl, then sprinkle over a tiny pinch of sea salt and black pepper, and ½ a teaspoon of sweet smoked paprika
Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, then toss everything together to coat
Spread out into a single layer in a large baking tray, then bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until golden and cooked through
These are perfect served with anything from grilled chicken to homemade burgers, or served in a big bowl for a party snack.
