Sweet Potato Fries

So, I purchased two new books- this recipe comes from Vegan with Vengeance and it truly kicks ass. I love fries. If you set a plate of fries in front of me, I will eat them all- ALL I SAY! I love salt, and I love the comfy taste of warm, squishy potatoes. But I never succeeded in making good homemade fries. So I decided I'd try these so I would have something to eat with my veggie burgers. Here's the recipe:

2 pounds sweet potato (I just used one honking one- it was HUGE!)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground coriander
1/4 tsp black pepper

Preheat to 475 degrees. Slice up the sweet potato into fry-like sticks, about 1/4 inch thick. In a bowl mix the oil, cumin, coriander and pepper. Toss the potato sticks in the bowl to coat with the mixture, then place in one layer in a baking sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes for each side.

I'm very excited that these came out perfect, the first time! They taste great, and are reminiscent of thanksgiving yams. They even taste good with ketchup, but you really don't need it.

Taste rating: 9
Prep time: 10 minutes (depending how sharp your knife is- those potatoes are hard suckers!)
Cook time: 20 mins
Dishes: one pan, one bowl. Woo!

PS- pay no attention to my lopsided bun!
PSS- my new favorite patties is the vegan patties from Boca.
