Sage Sweet Potato Fries With Dipping Sauces Recipes

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.
• Combine 3 tablespoons each of dijon mustard, stone ground mustard, mayo, 4 tablespoons honey, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon in a small food processor and blend until smooth. Keep refrigerated.
