The Neely's Memphis Sweet Potato Fries

The Neely's Memphis Sweet Potato Fries

4 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut lengthwise into 1/2-inch wide strips
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons brown sugar

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

In a large bowl, mix together olive oil, paprika and cinnamon. Toss the potato strips into mixture, to coat well, and spread onto baking sheet in a single layer. Sprinkle with salt and brown sugar.

Bake for 30 minutes, turning every 10 minutes.

I omitted the paprika entirely and only turned them once after 15 minutes. They were not crisp at all, but they WERE delicious! John told me next time to double the recipe and swore there would not be any leftovers if I did!

I served these with a Grilled Ham Steak and Cole Slaw. From FoodTV.
