Sweet potato fries

Friday, April 19, 2013

This is pretty much the same procedure as when I make celeriac fries. You can use butternut squash as well.

Peel, dice, oil, spice, and then bake in the oven at 200 degrees for 20-30 minutes. Or just use a skillet.


Here, served with beef, onion, broccoli, shallot, garlic and red bell pepper
