Roasted Sweet-Potato Fries

Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4

Ingredients

3 medium sweet potatoes (1 1/2 pounds), scrubbed
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F. Halve sweet potatoes crosswise; quarter each half lengthwise. On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss sweet potatoes with oil and cumin, and season with salt and pepper. Arrange potatoes, cut sides down, in a single layer.

    Step 2

    Roast, turning potatoes halfway through with a metal spatula (they should release easily from the sheet), until fork-tender and browned, about 40 minutes. Serve hot.
