Yam Fries Recipes

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:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Cut each sweet potato in half crosswise. Quarter each half lengthwise. Cut each quarter evenly into 2 to 4 pieces. Repeat with remaining sweet potatoes.
• Place sweet potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet. Add salt. Drizzle olive oil on top. Stir up potatoes to coat with oil; spread out evenly on the baking sheet. Season with pepper.
• Bake in the preheated oven, stirring every 10 minutes, until browned, 20 to 30 minutes.

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:

• 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:

• 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 oven to 410 degrees and line a few baking sheets with foil for easy clean up.
• Wash the yams and cut them into wedge-like pieces, lengthwise. Put the wedges into a mixture of the olive oil, salt, butter and rosemary. Bake the wedges for 25-30 minutes and then flip wedges over and bake for another 25-30 minutes. They are ready when "the edges of the wedges" have shriveled and browned on the edges some. The yams' sugar seeps out of the yams and caramelizes naturally when ready.
• I suggest making a double batch as you will be surprised how fast these get eaten!

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:

• 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 air fryer to 400°. Combine all ingredients; toss to coat. Place on greased tray in air-fryer basket. Cook until lightly browned, 10-12 minutes, stirring once. Serve immediately.

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:

• 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.
