SPICY SWEET POTATO FRITES

Spicy Sweet Potato Frites image

I was looking for something different to serve with cheeseburgers one night, and this is what I found (it's a Tanya Holland recipe from foodtv.com). The spice blend counters the sweetness of the fries rather nicely, I think. Prep time is primarily time needed to heat the oil sufficiently.

Ingredients

2 lbs sweet potatoes (4 medium)
2 quarts vegetable oil or 2 quarts peanut oil, for frying
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon chili powder (I recommend Chipotle chili powder)
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon ground thyme
1/4 teaspoon ground oregano

Steps:

Peel potatoes and cut into 1/4 inch matchsticks.
In a small bowl, combine all ingredients for the spice blend and set aside.
Heat oil to 300 degrees F.
"Blanch"fries for 2 minutes and let cool.
Bring oil up to 350 degrees F.
Fry for 3 minutes, or until fries are brown and rise to the top.
Sprinkle spice blend over hot fries and serve immediately.
