Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Carrots
- 2 medium Sweet Potatoes
- 2 medium Zucchini
- 3 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Sea Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili Powder
- 2 tablespoons Parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Peel the carrots and sweet potatoes. Cut all vegetables (carrots, sweet potatoes, and zucchini) into evenly sized sticks, about 1/4-inch in thickness.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the vegetable sticks with olive oil ensuring they are well coated.
In a separate small bowl, mix together the cornstarch, sea salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and chili powder.
Sprinkle the cornstarch and spice mixture over the oiled vegetable sticks and toss again to ensure even coating.
Arrange the veggie sticks in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each stick for even cooking.
Place baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven, flip each fry over, and continue baking for another 15 minutes or until crispy and golden brown.
Remove the fries from the oven and transfer them to a serving platter.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately for the best crispiness.
