Crispy baked sweet potato fries✨ . For the Fries:▪️1+1/2 lb. Sweet Potatoes (2 small or 1 large)▪️3 Tbsp Olive Oil ▪️3 Tbsp Cornstarch▪️Salt & Pepper▪️ . For the Spicy Aioli:▪️1/3 Cup Mayo▪️1 tsp Sriracha▪️ . 1️⃣ Slice the sweet potatoes in thin 1/4" strips (try to make them as uniform as possible and shorter fries will crisp up better so try to make them around 3" long); soak in cold water for at least 30 minutes (or up to 6 hours), this will remove some of the internal starch that prevents water from evaporating 2️⃣ Preheat the oven to 425°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper 3️⃣ Drain the fries and dry them off well with paper towel; pour into a bowl and toss with olive oil until all the fries are coated; add the cornstarch and some black pepper and toss again until coated evenly (wait to salt until the end which will maximize crispiness) 4️⃣ Pour fries onto the baking sheets; make sure that they are not touching and that the pans arer not overcrowded (over crowding will cause your fries to steam instead of crisping up) 5️⃣ Bake for 15 minutes, remove the fries from the oven and flip them over, and then bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the edges are golden brown and fries are crispy 6️⃣ Sprinkle the fries with salt and serve with the spicy aioli or ketchup - enjoy! . ⏲10 minute prep time + 30 minute soak time + 30 minute cook time
