Servings: 4 to 6 people
Ingredients
For Fries:
- nonstick cooking spray
- 2 large sweet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons garam masala
- 1 teaspoon salt
For Ketchup:
- ½ cup ketchup
- 2 teaspoons garam masala
- ⅛ teaspoon cayenne
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside.
Prepare Fries:
- Slice potatoes in half horizontally (no need to peel first), and then cut each half into slices about ½-inch thick.
- Cut the slices into fries about ½-inch wide, then place the fries in a large Ziplock bag.
- Sprinkle the fries with the cornstarch. Seal the bag and shake until the fries are evenly coated with cornstarch.
- Open bag. Drizzle fries with olive oil and sprinkle with garam masala and salt.
- Close the bag again and shake until fries are evenly coated.
- Place fries in a single layer on the baking sheet, then bake for 15 - 20 minutes or until fries are browned on one side.
- Flip fries, then bake for another 15-20 or until browned on the second side.
Prepare Ketchup:
- While the fries are cooking, mix together ketchup, garam masala, and cayenne. Set aside.
To Serve:
- Remove fries from oven and season to taste with additional salt, if desired.
- Serve fries immediately with ketchup. Enjoy!
Notes
- When shaking the fries in the Ziplock bag, make sure to hold your hand over the zip seal. That way, if the bag opens you won't have a huge mess to clean up. (Ask me how I learned that tip!)
- It's very important that the fries cook in a single layer with room around them. Use more than one baking sheet, if necessary, and rotate the pans' positions in oven after flipping halfway through.
- Get creative with the spices! These fries would also taste amazing seasoned with chili powder and cumin or even curry powder.
