Method
Preparation
- 1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure it's hot enough for crispy fries.
- 2
Prepare the Sweet Potatoes
Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips, approximately 1/4 inch thick.
- 3
Soak the Sweet Potatoes
Soak the sweet potato strips in cold water for at least 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and makes the fries crispier.
Cooking
- 4
Drain and Dry
After soaking, drain the sweet potatoes and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
- 5
Season the Fries
In a large bowl, combine the sweet potato strips with olive oil, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and cornstarch. Toss until evenly coated.
- 6
Arrange the Fries
Spread the sweet potato fries in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure they are not overcrowded to ensure even cooking.
- 7
Bake the Fries
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
- 8
Optional Toppings
If desired, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley right after removing them from the oven for additional flavor.
