Sweet Potato Oven Fries


Sweet Potato Oven Fries
April, 2000

Serves 4 / As infants, my girls both loved sweet potatoes, but when they reached the toddler stage this nutritious source of vitamin A became completely unappealing. It took some coaxing to get past that first bite, but with the help of a little ketchup, the verdict was an enthusiastic thumbs-up. Prep time: 5 minutes Cooking time: 30 minutes

3 large sweet potatoes
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 teaspoon salt

1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Spray cookie sheet with nonstick cooking oil.
2. Clean sweet potatoes. Cut into 1/2-inch-thick strips, and place in a mixing bowl. Add oil and salt, stirring to coat.
3. Spread strips in a single layer on cookie sheet. Stirring often, bake 30 minutes, or until potatoes are a light crispy brown.
