How to make sweet potato fries
- You need 5 small sweet potatoes
- Chop into chips (I prefer to leave the skins on for extra bite)
- Place in large bowl and drizzle with desert spoon of olive oil
- Sprinkle desert spoon of cajun spices, ground black pepper, pinch salt, tsp paprika and tsp chili flakes
- Mix well until all potatoes are coated evenly.
Bake in a preheated oven 200 degrees on a chip tray or rack to allow heat to circulate underneath for 30-40 minutes.
