Vegetable dishes are generally filed according to the primary or main ingredient. This is not an exact science but in the case of some vegetable salads, we'll put a copy here if it has another main vegetable component other than basic salad ingredients. NOTE REGARDING PICKLES & FERMENTED: Pickled and fermented vegetables are filed here; pickled or fermented fruit, meat and seafood are filed in their respective categories. Additionally, all beans (including green and wax) are filed in the bean category.
3 large sweet potatoes peeled and cut into 1/4 to 1/2 inch fries (about 1 to 1.5 pounds or 453 to 680 grams)
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
1/4 cup olive oil (59 ml)
Place the cut sweet potatoes in a bowl of hot water and soak for 10 minutes. Drain, pat dry (see note in post), and set aside. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. In a small bowl mix together the salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper. Set aside. In a large bowl, combine the sweet potatoes, olive oil, and spices. Toss well to ensure the fries are coated evenly. Pour the sweet potatoes onto a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 23 minutes, flip the sweet potatoes and rotate the pan. Bake for an additioanl 15 to 25 minutes, checking to make sure they do not burn. Remove from the oven, allow to cool a little and then serve with ketchup.
