Sweet Potato Fries
- 4 medium Sweet Potatoes
- 1 cup Cornstarch
- ⅛ cup Avocado Oil
- 2 teaspoon Cumin
- ½ teaspoon Salt
- ½ teaspoon Pepper
Chipotle Lime Mayo Sweet Potatoes Dip
- ½ cup Mayonnaise
- ½ cup Cilantro chopped
- 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil or Avocado Oil
- 1 clove Garlic minced
- 2 Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce from the can
- 1 whole Lime juiced
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Peel and cut each sweet potato in half lengthwise. Cut each half into ⅓" slices, then cut those slices into ⅓" pieces. As you cut them ,add the sliced sweet potatoes to a bowl of ice water to keep them from oxidizing.
Remove sweet potatoes from the water and lay them out flat on a towel. Pat them dry with a towel on top as well.
Place sliced potatoes in a large bowl and toss with the cornstarch, then transfer to a baking sheet in a single layer (you may need more than one baking sheet - be sure not to overcrowd them). Drizzle with avocado oil, then sprinkle with cumin, salt, and pepper to season.
Bake in a preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until the edges are slightly crispy and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly while you make the Sweet Potato Fries dipping sauce. Enjoy!
