Curly Sweet Potato Fries with Garlic Aioli
Description
Curly Sweet Potato Fries with Garlic Aioli begin by spiralizing a sweet potato into curly shapes. They are tossed with avocado oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper, ensuring even coating on each fry. These fries are baked at a high temperature until crisp on the outside and tender inside, with occasional rotation for even cooking.
The garlic aioli involves whisking mayonnaise with minced garlic, lemon juice, and seasoning, creating a smooth, rich, tangy dip that complements the natural sweetness and spices of the fries. This pairing provides contrast in flavors and textures.
These fries work well as a snack or a side dish alongside sandwiches or grilled foods. Baking in the oven reduces the fat compared to frying, while still achieving crispiness through the spiralized shape that increases surface area.
Ingredients
Curly Sweet Potato Fries
- 1 sweet potato
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- salt
- black pepper
Garlic Aioli
- 2 tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1/2 tsp lemon juice
- salt pinch
- black pepper pinch
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees fahrenheit.
- Spiralize the sweet potato and place it on a sheet pan. Drizzle the oil and sprinkle the spices on top, then use your hands to mix it all together until each piece of sweet potato is coated.
- Cook the sweet potato for 20-25 minutes, or until crispy. The pieces along the outside edge may cook faster, so keep an eye on them and rotate as necessary.
- While the sweet potato is cooking, mix together the ingredients for the garlic aioli in a small bowl, until well combined.
- Remove the sweet potato fries from the oven and serve with the garlic aioli.
Notes
- Use a spiralizer to achieve consistent curly sweet potato fries that cook evenly.
- Keep an eye on the fries during baking; rotate the sheet pan to prevent edges from burning.
- The garlic aioli can be prepared ahead and refrigerated to allow flavors to meld.
