OVEN-BAKED SWEET POTATO FRIES WITH HOMEMADE RANCH DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450ºF.
• Put the sweet potatoes in a large bowl. Add the olive oil and toss to coat. Stir together the cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle the spice mixture over the sweet potatoes and toss to coat.
• Arrange the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer, leaving as much space between the fries as possible. Bake, turning once about three-quarters of the way through, until the edges are browned and crispy, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool 5 minutes before serving.
• Serve the warm fries with the Ranch Dressing.
• Add the buttermilk, mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, onion powder, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper and hot sauce to a food processor. Pulse to combine until smooth. Add the parsley and dill and pulse to incorporate, 4 to 5 times. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour into a serving bowl.

BAKED SWEET POTATO FRIES WITH CHIPOTLE RANCH DRESSING

Steps:

• To make dressing: Place all ingredients except the buttermilk in the blender. Blend for 10 seconds. Check consistency and blend in buttermilk (less buttermilk for dipping, more for dressing). Store in an air-tight jar in the fridge for a week or more.
• To make the fries: Coat a baking sheet with 3 tablespoons of oil, adding the last tablespoon if necessary.
• Peel and slice the sweet potatoes into 1/4 inch sticks (no longer than 5 inches long).
• In a large zipper bag mix the dry spices together. (I skipped the zipper bag and mixed everything in a large bowl). Add the sweet potato fries and shake the fries to coat evenly (I added a tad bit of oil to the fries in the bowl and the spices stuck nicely).
• Carefully put the fries onto the baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
• Turn on the broiler for the last 1 to 2 minutes, just until the tips of the fries begin to turn black. Don't walk away--they can burn in no time.
• Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate in a single layer until ready to serve. (I also skipped the paper towel because they weren't greasy and I thought it was unnecessary. Plus they disappeared so fast that was a pointless step in my opinion.).
