Yea!! I've been waiting for this thread all year!

Do you have a good recipe for baked sweet potato fries?

Tex-Mex Baked Sweet Potato Fries

• 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  2 large (about 1 1/2 pounds) sweet potatoes

1) Prepare the sweet potatoes: In a small bowl, combine cumin, salt, and pepper.
Set aside. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2) Peel potatoes, cut each in half lengthwise, and cut each half into 6 wedges.
3) In a large bowl, combine the cut potatoes, oil, and spice mixture. Toss until potatoes are evenly coated.
4) Bake the fries: On a baking sheet, arrange potatoes in a single layer and place on the middle shelf of the oven.
Bake until edges are crisp and potatoes are cooked through -- about 30 minutes. Serve immediately.

Sweet potato fries-
We just toss them about in a bit of olive oil and salt and pepper. Pop into the oven on a cookie sheet.

What else would you do to them?

(sweet potatoes are the best!)

I like sweet potato casserole and baked sweet potatoes. You are making me hungry.
