Sage Sweet Potato Fries With Dipping Sauces image

Complement any meal with chef Spike Mendelsohn's(one of Top Chef's participants and owner of Good Stuff Eatery in Washington, D.C.) sweet potato fries, a side dish he created in celebration of the 2009 inauguration of Barack Obama. I got this from Oprah Winfrey's website.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 sweet potatoes, skin on (or off, your choice)
1 bunch chopped fresh sage (about 1/4 cup)
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons sea salt
2 tablespoons cracked black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
2 cups mayonnaise
1/4-1/2 cup sriracha sauce (at local grocery stores, a hot sauce)
2 tablespoons heavy cream (whipping)
1 tablespoon sea salt
1 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup chopped mint
1/3 cup chopped Thai basil (or regular basil)
1/3 cup chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons sea salt

Steps:

  • To make fries:.
  • Cut sweet potatoes lengthwise, then cut into french fries. I like them skinny.
  • Chop sage into small pieces.
  • Place cut sweet potatoes on a cookie sheet, in a single layer.
  • Drizzle olive oil.
  • Spread brown sugar, sea salt and cracked black pepper over potatoes.
  • Bake in oven at 350° for 30=40 minutes, or until a fork can poke through easily.
  • Once out of the oven, sprinkle chopped sage, let cool and serve.
  • To make Sriracha Mayonnaise:.
  • In a food processor, combine mayonnaise, Sriracha, cream and salt.
  • Mix for 2 to 3 minutes until thick and creamy. Don't overmix. Serve as a dipping sauce for fries(also good with onion rings and fish).
  • To make Herb Mayonnaise:.
  • In a food processor, combine mayonnaise, herbs and sea salt.
  • Mix for 2 to 3 minutes until all ingredients are well blended.
  • Serve as a dipping sauce for fries or onion rings(also good with fish).
