French Fried Yams Recipes

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:

• Peel and slice sweet potatoes as you would for french fries.
• Fry in deep fat as you would french fries.
• Drain on paper towels.
• Salt and enjoy.

Steps:

• Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Combine sweet potato fries and canola oil in a bowl and mix. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix until all fries are evenly coated.
• Divide sweet potatoes into 2 or 3 batches for cooking. Place an even layer of sweet potatoes in the fry basket, insert in the air fryer, and cook until golden, about 10 minutes. Repeat with remaining sweet potatoes.

Steps:

• Cut potatoes in round "wheels" about 1/2 inch thick and immediately immerse in water to not discolor.
• Drain and pat dry with paper towel. Fry on low heat until golden brown and stick tender in the middle.
• Place on paper towels and salt immediately.
• Serve and enjoy!

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high and season generously with salt.
• Fill a large bowl with water. Working quickly to avoid oxidation, slice off the ends of the yam and peel the brown skin. Cut the yam into 3/4-inch-thick rounds and transfer to the bowl. Once sliced and peeled, cut each piece into 1/2-inch-wide matchsticks, slicing a few rounds at a time and transferring matchsticks back to the water. (You should get about 5 to 8 sticks per piece.)
• Working in batches, drop the matchsticks into the simmering water and blanch for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the hot water and transfer to a rack set over a baking sheet to drain. Repeat the blanching and draining process for the remaining matchsticks.
• Fill a large skillet with 1 inch of canola oil. (You'll need about 4 cups for a 10-inch skillet.) Heat the oil over medium-high until it registers 350 degrees on an instant-read thermometer. Working in two or three batches to avoid crowding, and replenishing the oil as needed, fry the yam matchsticks, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from oil and drain on a baking sheet set with paper towels or a rack. Season the fries with salt.
• Serve fries warm, with some obe ata or your preferred condiment for dipping.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add peeled sweet potatoes, and boil for about 4 minutes. Remove from water, and cut into 1/2 inch slices.
• Melt butter in a large frying pan over medium heat. Stir in brown sugar until dissolved, adding more butter if necessary. Add sweet potatoes, and fry until golden brown and fork tender, turning occasionally. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400.
• Cut the sweet potatoes into sticks 1/4 to 1/2 inch wide and 3 inches long, and toss them with the oil.
• Mix the spices, salt and pepper in a small bowl, and toss them with the sweet potatoes. Spread them out on 2 rimmed baking sheets.
• Bake until brown and crisp on the bottom, about 15 minutes, then flip and cook until the other side is crisp, about 10 minutes. Serve hot.

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:

• At least 30 minutes prior place sliced potatoes in bowl and cover with water.
• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Line cookie sheet(s) with aluminum foil (makes clean-up a snap). Use two cookie sheets if necessary . . . for crisp potatoes they need lots of space, so don't crowd!
• Spray foil with non-stick spray.
• Drain potatoes and pat dry with paper towels.
• Return potatoes to (dry) bowl and drizzle with oil and toss to coat.
• Sprinkle with paprika, salt, cinnamon and brown sugar; toss to coat.
• Place on prepared cookie sheets; again, DO NOT CROWD, use two sheets if necessary!
• Roast, turning the potatoes every 10 minutes, until potatoes are browned and tender, 15-20 minutes. If using two cookie sheets, alternate the pans after 10 minutes!

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.
