Instructions
- Wash and peel your sweet potatoes. Cut into 1/4 inch thick fries and rinse the potatoes for about 10-15 seconds under cold water then dry with paper towels or a clean dish cloth you don't mind turning slightly orange.
- Mix the cornstarch with the water to make a slurry in a large bowl or large ziploc bag, add sweet potatoes and toss to coat.
- Heat your oil in your pot to 350 degrees and add the fries 1 at a time so they don't stick together, but make sure you don't overcrowd your pan.
- Each time you do another round of potatoes toss the potatoes in the slurry again to prevent the cornstarch from settling. This should only take a few seconds and is even easier if you have a ziploc bag you can just flip upside down a few times and shake.
- Fry for 1-2 minutes (no browning yet) and drain on a brown paper bag.
- Once all the fries are done with their first dip in the oil, start the second round of frying, then fry them the second time for an additional 2 minutes, until they're browned and crispy.
Notes
- To reheat:?If you're making ahead for a crowd, you can heat them in the oven at 325 degrees for 5-7 minutes to crisp them back up.
