Sweet potato french fries?

[Raquelita]

Anyone have a good recipe for sweet potato french fries?

I absolutely love them deep fried with salt; peel and cut into fries, deep fry at 325* F. for 5 minutes; remove and drain; bring fryer temp up to 375* F. and return to fryer until done; drain; salt to taste.

A friends grandkids like them with cinnamon and sugar on them - but I am not brave enought to try that one! I think I'm a bit too old!

Wow....why have I not heard of these? They sound so good. I am going to make some real soon. I am craving them already and havent tried them.

The best part is that sweet potatoes are so healthy for you, so especially if you cut them as thick steak fries you're getting healthy benefits with the yummy fried flavor to boot .

Careful BagCSC - you may never want another plain french fry again!!! I really prefer these over white potatoes!

I got some sweet potatoes the other day to make these, but ended up boiling them and adding brown sugar and butter. I forgot I didnt have any oil.
Next time.

We oven-fry ours. Slice them as steak fries and then toss them with a bit of olive oil and maybe a little salt, and then stick 'em in the oven at 450 for 25 minutes, turning once halfway through.

I make them for my kids all the time and manys the time they (the fries) never even make it to the table ... everyone's standing around the stove eating them directly off of the cooking sheet!

I like oven fried sweet potatoes. My son likes it too. We usually slice the sweet potatos into thin pieces, just a tiny bit of add olive oil, a little sugar and put then the oven at 375 for about 30 minutes.
