Serves: 2
Ingredients
2 Large Sweet Potatoes (Yams or--my favorite--Japanese sweet potatoes, they're white!)
1/4 cup olive oil + 1 teaspoon for mixing with fries
1 tablespoon coarse grain mustard
1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
Salt and Pepper to taste
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 400F
2. Peel the sweet potatoes
3. Cut lengthwise into slices about 1/2 inch thick
4. Slice these pieces again lengthwise so they form thin fries (no more than 1/2 inch in width)
5. Arrange the "fries" on a baking sheet and coat with olive oil (about 1/4 cup or just enough so all fries are coated but not too much so that there's excess oil on the baking tray.)
6. With your hands, mix the fries so that the olive oil is coated evenly.
7. Sprinkle fries with salt, pepper and a little cumin (not too much salt because we will be adding more salt later.)
7. Put fries in the oven and bake until crispy (about 35-45 minutes.)
8. While the fries cook, mix the mustard, white wine vinegar, oregano, basil, 1 tsp olive oil, salt (just a pinch! remember there's already salt on the fries,) and pepper in a bowl so that all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
9. Once fries are done, place them in a large bowl and mix with the mustard/white wine/olive oil/oregano/basil mixture. Start with just a little of this mixture and only add more if it doesn't coat all the fries. Once each fry has been lightly coated in the mixture, they're ready to eat!
