I was craving for sweet potato fries but instead of going to my favourite restaurant, I decided to go to the supermarket and get a bag of sweet potatoes.

Making sweet potato fries is easy and of course it is cost effective. All you need is:
2 big sweet potatoes
2 tablespoon of olive oil a
a tablespoon of paprika.

Wash the sweet potatoes (peel them if you like);

Cut the sweet potatoes lengthwise

In a bowl, mix olive oil and paprika together (you can add a little bit of honey if you wish)

Then, add the sweet potatoes; mix until the sweet potatoes are covered with paprika mixture.

Place the sweet potato on a greased baking tray

Bake for 20 minutes.

You can have this as a side or a snack :)

Good job! I love sweet potato fries! But usually I deep frie them

I've never tried deep frying them. I use less oil as much as possible. :) that's why I prefer baking them :)

If you're worried about transfats, try tallow or coconut oil. Coconut might be the best for this because of the umami flavours. :3

Yeah, I'll give coconut oil a go :) Thanks
