Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium-sized sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh sage leaves
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon pepper
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 2 whole garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into evenly sized fries, about 1/4 inch thick.
In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato fries with olive oil, cornstarch, salt, pepper, and finely chopped fresh sage.
Spread the fries out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, ensuring they don’t overlap for maximum crispiness.
Bake for 15 minutes, then flip the fries and bake for another 15 minutes or until golden brown and crisp on the edges.
While the fries are baking, prepare the dipping sauces. For the garlic-lime aioli, mix mayo, minced garlic, and lime juice in a small bowl. Stir well and set aside.
For the smoky maple mustard sauce, whisk together maple syrup, Dijon mustard, and smoked paprika in another small bowl until smooth.
Once the fries are done, remove them from the oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes.
Serve the sage sweet potato fries warm with both dipping sauces on the side.
