Chili Sweet Potato Fries Recipes

Steps:

• Toss 2 pounds sweet potatoes (cut into wedges) with 3 tablespoons olive oil, 1 1/2 teaspoons each brown sugar and salt, 1/4 teaspoon each cumin and chili powder, and a pinch of cayenne. Roast cut-side down on a baking sheet in a 425 oven until crisp, 30 minutes, turning once.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 450. Arrange fries in single layer on cookie sheet, sprayed with cooking spray. Bake about 20 minutes, until crisp. I like mine extra crispy to stand up to toppings.
• 2. In a small saucepan, heat chili over medium heat until thoroughly heated.
• 3. Put fries on a serving platter. Spoon chili over fries. Sprinkle with cheese & onions. Serve hot. Optional toppings that are low calorie: black olives, tomatoes, lettuce.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°F. Arrange fries in single layer on 15x10x1-inch pan. Spray fries with cooking spray. Bake 18 to 22 minutes or until crisp.
• In small saucepan, heat chili over medium heat 3 minutes or until thoroughly heated.
• Transfer fries to serving platter or individual plates. Spoon chili over fries; sprinkle with cheese and onions. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat the EVOO in a Dutch oven or chili pot over medium-high heat. Add the meat, then crumble and brown. Add the garlic, chiles, onions, ginger, chili powder, coriander, cumin, turmeric and some salt and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes, then add the tomato paste and stir a minute more. Add the stock and simmer for the flavors to combine, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool and store for a make-ahead meal.
• Stir together the yogurt and Sriracha and store in a airtight container in the refrigerator.
• When ready to eat, reheat the curry chili over medium heat, adding more stock or water if needed, while you bake the sweet potato fries.
• For the fries: Place a rack in upper third of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Cut the sweet potatoes into fairly thin fries, 1/4-inch thick, and arrange on baking sheet. Spray with the cooking spray and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 7 to 8 minutes, then switch on the broiler and broil until brown and crispy at edges, 15 to 20 minutes, turning once.
• Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. When it foams, add the garlic and swirl for a minute. Toss the fries with the butter and cilantro in large bowl using tongs.
• To serve, arrange the fries on a platter or individual plates. Ladle the chili over the fries and top with the spicy yogurt, mint and scallions, and pass the limes for squeezing on top.
