Over the past several weeks, we have picked up 10 pounds of sweet potatoes at our CSA (Community Supported Agriculture). This has given me the opportunity to do a bit of experimenting. Samuel didn't eat french fries often but, he really misses them. Most restaurants cook them in soybean oil which is a big no no for Samuel. We don't often buy white potatoes so I decided to try to use the sweet potatoes to make a substitute.
3-4 pounds sweet potatoes
1/2 cup of olive oil
1 large garlic clove, crushed
1 TBS honey
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
Dash of nutmeg
Salt
Heat the oven to 350. Wash, peel and cut the sweet potatoes. Use a whisk to mix all the ingredients, except the salt, together. Coat the sweet potatoes in the mixture and add a little salt. Place the sweet potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet (I prefer stoneware). Put in the oven for 35-40 minutes or until they start to brown.
