Grampy always said sweet potato fries were way better for you than regular potato fries.  I thought of him when I was making these oven fries.

 

 

 

It’s always sad when I stab a perfectly good sweet potato but it always seems like I manage to stab the biggest nicest one.  And that’s just what I did.

 

 

It seems to have been a good year for sweet potatoes.

 

 

I haven’t even dug half of them yet.

 

 

 

Cup some sweet potatoes into thin-ish sticks.

 

 

place in a ziploc bag.

 

 

pour in a tablespoon of olive oil

 

 

and a dash of soy sauce.

 

 

mix it all around and place on a baking sheet.

 

 

bake at 450 a total of 25 to 30 minutes turning half way through.

If you put them only one layer deep they get crisper. Don’t do like I did on this batch.

 

 

 

On the next one I put fewer on the baking sheet and it was better. Season with salt, pepper,  garlic powder, onion powder or whatever you like.
