CRISPY BAKED SWEET POTATO FRIES WITH DIPPING SAUCES

Steps:

• Wash and rinse four large Sweet Potatoes. Cut them into long strips about 1/4×1/4 inch wide.
• Place the sweet potatoes in a large bowl of water and let sit in the refrigerator at least one hour. You can let them sit overnight as well.
• When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 425°F, remove the sweet potatoes from the water and dry on paper towels.
• Place the sweet potatoes in a jumbo ziplock bag and sprinkle 4-6 teaspoons of cornstarch over them. Seal and shake the bag until all the potatoes have a very light coat on them. You could use a large ziplock bag and divide into 2 batches.
• Place the strips in a large bowl and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Smear a light coat of olive oil all over the sweet potatoes.
• Cover two large cookie sheets with parchment paper and lightly spray the sheets with cooking spray. Place the sweet potato strips in a single layer on the cookie sheet without touching each other. Bake for 15-20 minutes. Carefully turn the sweet potato fries over and bake for another 15-20 minutes until they are nicely brown on both sides.
• When they are done, turn the oven off, open the door halfway and let the cookie sheets sit in the oven for 10 minutes.
• Sprinkle with coarse sea salt. Serve with one of the dipping sauces.
• Thread 50 large marshmallows on wooden skewers. Place skewers on a wire rack over a cookie sheet and place under the broiler in the top of the oven and broil for 1-2 minutes until charred and bubbly. Be careful that they don't melt. Let cool slightly.
• Carefully remove the marshmallows and combine in a medium bowl with 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg. Add 1/2 cup or more of warmed whipping cream to desired consistency. Beat with mixer until smooth. You will see specks of the toasted marshmallows in the sauce. Serve semi-warm.

SWEET POTATO FRIES WITH DILL DIP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 F and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper, or spray with non-stick spray.* Use the roast setting on the oven if available.

• Add the oil, garlic powder, paprika and sea salt to the bag, and shake vigorously. Place the fries in a single layer on the baking sheets and place in the oven for 15 minutes. Remove the pans, and using a metal spatula, flip the fries in sections. Place back in the oven for another 10-15 minutes. You'll know the fries are done when they're slightly pillowy looking and firm.* No floppy fries!
• While the fries are baking, prepare the dill dip by combining all of the dip ingredients in a small bowl, and mixing together. Store in the fridge until the fries are ready.
• Serve the fries alongside a small bowl of dip. Enjoy immediately!

BAKED SWEET POTATO FRIES WITH GARLIC, LIME & HONEY DIP

Steps:

• Potatoes -- Two important things to note when making these. First. Cut all the fries approximately the same size. Second, make sure to cook directly on the cookie sheet. No foil or parchment paper. After cutting the sweet potatoes fries add to a medium size bowl with the olive oil and seasoning and toss well to combine. Add to the cookie sheet and make sure then are not laying on top of one another. They need some space so they can brown up.
• Bake -- In a 425 degree oven bake them for 15 minutes and then flip. Guys, they will be soft, they aren't done but be careful flipping them. Bake another 20 minutes until crispy.
• Dip -- As the fries bake, make the dip. Just mix it all in a small bowl and refrigerate. Nothing more. Grating the onion is important as it gives you a lot more flavor. Just enjoy, these are a great change from the average french fries.
