Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Medium sweet potatoes
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 cup Olive oil, for frying
Instructions
Wash and peel the sweet potatoes, then cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick, to resemble fries.
In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to distribute the spices evenly.
In another bowl, beat the eggs until smooth.
Dip each sweet potato strip into the beaten eggs, ensuring it's fully coated.
Transfer the egg-coated sweet potato into the almond flour mixture, pressing slightly to ensure the coating adheres well. Repeat with all sweet potato strips.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. The oil should be hot but not smoking.
Fry the coated sweet potatoes in batches, avoiding overcrowding the pan, for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Transfer the fried sweet potatoes to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve immediately while they are hot and crispy. These can be enjoyed alone or with a dip of choice!
