Instructions:
Step 1:
Peel the sweet potatoes and slice them into 1/2″ square sticks just like regular fries.
Step 2:
Place them in a large ziplock bag and add 2 tablespoons of cornstarch. Toss to coat each piece evenly. (To make them crispier, you can soak them in water for about 45 minutes before adding cornstarch) If you don’t have a zip-lock bag just use a bowl.
Step 3:
Transfer the coated sweet potato fries to a bowl, then add 2 tablespoons of oil, 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything to coat each of the sweet potato fries.
Step 4:
Place the fries in a baking tray lined with aluminum foil. Make sure that each one is spaced apart evenly.
Step 5:
Place in a preheated oven at 425 degrees F and bake for about 20 minutes, turn them over and bake for another 10 to 15 minutes. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce. Enjoy it with your friends and family.
