    Presentation

    Ingredients

    1 pc Sweet Potato (Called Purple Yams in some grocery store)

    Oil for frying ( Vegetable Oil, Canola Oil, Grapeseed Oil preferably)

    1 Teaspoon salt

    2 1/2 cups cold water

    Directions

    – Pour the water in a small plastic bowl so it almost full. Add salt to the water to form your brine.

    – Peel the skin off the sweet potato and completely soak in the brine

    – Slice the sweet potato lengthwise to get long strips that look like fries. Soak the strips in the brine.

    – Heat the oil in a frying pan or deep frier. Drain fries and place them in oil. Turn on sides till all have a whitish brown appearance ( the browner the crispier)

    – Remove fries from pan and place on a paper towel in a plate to remove excess oil.

    Your sweet potato fries are ready to eat !!! Can be served as you would regular fries.

      As long as the sauce or scrambled egg is on the side that will work too. You don’t want to pour on it so it doesn’t get soggy.
