6 large sweet potatoes
Salt
5 tablespoons olive oil
6 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme leaves
1/4 teaspoon red chili flakes
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Place the potatoes in a large pot of cold water, add 2 tablespoons of salt and cook until potatoes are tender, but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly.
  • Heat the grill to high.
  • While the potatoes are cooling, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a small saute pan on the grates of the grill. Add the garlic, thyme and chili flakes and cook until the garlic is just soft, about 45 seconds. Remove from the heat.

Categories     side-dish

Time 55m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 tablespoons olive oil
2 red onions, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes or garnet yams (about 3 medium), scrubbed, unpeeled and cut into 1/4-inch-by-4-inch fries, soaked in ice water
Canola oil or vegetable oil
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
3 cloves garlic, minced
8 ounces shredded fontina, for serving

Steps:

  • For the caramelized onions: Heat the oil over medium heat in a large nonstick skillet. Add the onions, vinegar, salt and pepper, stirring occasionally, until the onions are deep golden brown, about 20 minutes.
  • Fries: Drain the potatoes and dry completely on a clean kitchen towel. In a large heavy-bottomed saucepan, pour enough oil to fill the pan about a third of the way. Heat over medium-high heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil reaches 375 degrees F. (If you don't have a thermometer a cube of bread will brown in about 5 minutes.)
  • While the oil is heating, in a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and 2 1/2 cups water until smooth. Coat the potatoes in the batter. Transfer 8 to 10 potatoes to the oil, allowing any excess batter to drip back into the bowl. Fry until golden and crisp, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining potatoes.
  • For the sauce: In a small skillet, melt the butter over low heat. Add the thyme and garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Pour the sauce over the fries and gently toss until coated.
  • Place the fries on a platter and spoon the onions on top. Sprinkle with fontina and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Look for firm, unblemished sweet potatoes that are about the same size so they cook evenly.
  • Cut the potatoes into evenly sized pieces: This will help them cook evenly and prevent some pieces from becoming overcooked while others are still undercooked.
  • Toss the potatoes with oil, salt, and pepper before baking: This will help them crisp up and develop a golden brown color.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet: Make sure there is enough space between the potato wedges so that they can cook evenly.
  • Bake the potatoes until they are tender and slightly caramelized: The cooking time will vary depending on the size of the potatoes and how thick they are cut.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately: Sweet potato fries are best enjoyed hot and crispy. You can serve them with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, mayonnaise, or ranch dressing.
  • Add your favorite seasonings: In addition to garlic and herbs, you can also add other seasonings to your sweet potato fries, such as chili powder, cumin, or paprika.
  • Experiment with different cooking methods: You can also cook sweet potato fries in an air fryer or on a grill.
