Sweet Potato Fries
I haven't had much time making art these days, but I've had some fun in the kitchen!
Since sweet potatoes have become a favorite in our house, I'm always looking for new ways to use them. My friend, Shirley, gave me this recipe and these were some of the best fries we've had.
4 cups water, for par-boiling
6 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into fries
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 Tbs fresh sage, minced
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp cracked pepper
2 Tbs olive oil
Pre-heat oven to 425. In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add fries, let par-boil for about 5 minutes. Drain fries and place in a large bowl. Add the garlic, sage, salt and pepper and toss to coat evenly. Arrange fries evenly on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake at 425 degrees for 25 minutes or until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Turn half-way through the cooking time.
Yum yum. Or as Kestan says, "num num".
