Baked Yam Fries Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375.
• Just wash your yams well & cut them into pieces of your desired size, I like them a bit thicker.
• Toss them in 1 tlbs. oil {you can use others but grapeseed oil is best since it doesn't become toxic once it reaches certain temps like oilve oil may}.
• Lay them out on a cookie sheet, meaty part facing down & season with kosher salt or I used Mrs. Dash since it's salt-less. Bake for 20 mins or until the thickest pieces are tender!

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread the olive oil over a baking sheet.
• Arrange the yams on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer; season with the seasoned salt.
• Bake the yams in the preheated oven until soft, about 25 minutes.
• While the yams bake, stir the sour cream, mayonnaise, taco seasoning, and paprika together in a small bowl. Serve as a dip for the yams.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
• Halve the sweet potatoes lengthwise and cut each half into 3 long spears. Place them on a sheet pan and toss with the olive oil. Spread the potatoes in one layer. Combine the brown sugar, salt, and pepper and sprinkle on the potatoes. Bake for 15 minutes and then turn with a spatula. Bake for another 5 to 10 minutes, until lightly browned. Sprinkle lightly with salt and serve hot.

Steps:

• Position rack in upper third of oven and preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Spray baking sheet with non-stick spray.
• Place sweet potatoes and soybean oil in large bowl, toss lightly. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and paprika.
• Arrange potatoes in a single layer on prepared baking sheet, being sure not to overcrowd.
• Bake until tender and golden brown, turning occasionally. Cooking time is 18 to 24 minutes. Cool 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Scrub the sweet potatoes and leave the skin on (best part.).
• I like using a french fry cutter (it works sort of like those apple corer/slicer things) for this but if you don't have one, just use a knife to cut the potatoes into shoestrings.
• Put the raw fries into a mixing bowl, and pour in the olive oil. Toss well to coat.
• Add the seasonings and toss well again.
• Arrange the fries on a baking sheet and bake at 400F for 10 minutes.
• Turn the fries with a spatula and bake for another 10 minutes.
• Blot any excess oil with paper towels, serve, and enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°. Combine all ingredients; toss to coat. Spread fries in a single layer on 2 baking sheets. Bake until crisp, 35-40 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• In a plastic bag, combine the sweet potatoes, canola oil, taco seasoning, and cayenne pepper. Close and shake the bag until the fries are evenly coated. Spread the fries out in a single layer on two large baking sheets.
• Bake for 30 minutes, or until crispy and brown on one side. Turn the fries over using a spatula, and cook for another 30 minutes, or until they are all crispy on the outside and tender inside. Thinner fries may not take as long.

Steps:

• Rinse and peel sweet potatoes.
• To cut into fries, cut a small sliver off the edge of the potatoes lengthwise to create a flat side for them to rest on. Turn the potato over to lay on its flat side. Cut each slice lengthwise into three to four fries.
• Place the fries in a bowl of water and soak for one hour. (This helps remove excess starch from the potatoes so your fries will be crispier.) Rinse and dry off.
• In a large bowl or gallon bag, toss the fries with cornstarch until they're evenly coated. Then add the oil and toss to coat.
• Add the pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and brown sugar and toss to evenly distribute your spices. (Hold off on adding the salt until after baking. This will help make sure the fries are crispy.)
• Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Lay out the french fries, being sure not to overcrowd the pan. (You may need two pans, depending on how large your pans are. Avoid overcrowding one pan or your fries may not crisp up.)
• Bake for 15 minutes. Flip fries with tongs, then bake for an additional 10-15 minutes. Sprinkle on salt (to taste) and serve! Add shredded Parmesan and chopped parsley for an optional garnish.
• Enjoy!
