Sweet potato variety that is :]

I used to love making oven-baked potato and kumara (sweet potato) fries, but since I've been avoiding the nightshade family of foods for health reasons, I've been making carrot and parsnip "fries" instead - just cutting them into square fry shape, rubbing with olive oil, seasoning with salt and pepper, and roasting at 220 degrees celsius for half an hour. Really yummy, actually!

No. I already eat them too much when I'm out. I do make oven baked potato slices, though.

Do the kind from the bag count? I get the fat steak fries ones from Trader Joe's and pop them in the oven. I can make homemade homefries tho! Those are good. :) But whenever I try and make crunchy, skinny fries, they end up burnt. Ew.

Honestly not really. Unless I am preparing my greasy breakfast, which is like once every four months, I don't even eat potatoes.

Trader Joe's sells bags of pre-cut, fry shaped sweet potato spears...it's practically fail proof! Just use some olive oil as tamint says and season to taste! :p

I have only ever done oven fries. I'm too chicken to try making deep-fried ones.

So far, no luck with the fries. They either become chips or just plain burned. :\

ALWAYS! They are so much healthier, taste better, and they are so easy to make. I always use olive oil, and they are the yummiest when spices and hot peppers are added!
