Time 35m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/4 cups mayonnaise
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice (from 1 medium lime)
8 cilantro sprigs, stems trimmed
2 medium garlic cloves
1 teaspoon dry mustard powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

2 teaspoons white wine vinegar
1 pound sole or haddock fillets
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup chilled club soda

Steps:

  • For the mayonnaise: In a blender, combine all ingredients and process until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Store covered in the refrigerator until ready to use.
  • For the fries: Heat oven to 200 degrees F. In a large cast iron skillet, pan, or Dutch oven, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat to 350 degrees F.
  • Meanwhile, peel sweet potatoes and cut lengthwise into 1/2-inch planks. Cut planks lengthwise into 1/2-inch strips. Place strips in hot water with vinegar while oil finishes heating. Line a plate with paper towels and set aside.
  • When oil is heated, drain fries and thoroughly pat dry with paper towels. Add 1/3 of fries to oil and cook until browned and cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove fries to paper towels with a slotted spoon and season immediately with kosher salt. Return oil to 350 degrees F and repeat with remaining fries. Hold in oven until fish is ready.
  • For the fish: Skim oil to clean then return to stove over medium-high and bring to 350 degrees F. Pat fish dry with paper towels then cut into 1/2-inch strips; set aside. In a large bowl whisk together flour, salt, cayenne, and pepper well combined. Add club soda and whisk briefly until a batter is formed (there may be a few lumps left. Place all fish in batter and mix to coat thoroughly. Remove 8 pieces of fish from batter, shake off excess batter, and fry, stirring occasionally, until golden and fish is just cooked through, about 2 to 3 minutes. (To test if fish is cooked, break open 1 piece and make sure meat is white throughout.) Transfer fish with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. Return oil to 350 degrees F and repeat with remaining fish. Serve immediately with fries and mayonnaise.

These addicting baked sweet potato fries crisp up nicely in the oven. Dip them in a healthy garlicky dill ranch and you're good to go. Just reduce or leave out the sugar and spices if you prefer a less-spicy version.

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 medium sweet potatoes
2 tablespoons corn starch
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoons pure maple syrup or brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper (add more for more heat)
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt or fine-grain sea salt + more to taste
3/4 cup Greek yogurt (I use full-fat)
2 teaspoons white wine vinegar or champagne vinegar
1-2 garlic cloves (smashed and finely minced (about 2 heaping teaspoons))
2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
1 tablespoon fresh minced dill
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (plus more to taste)
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (plus more to taste)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Scrub sweet potatoes or peel off the skin, if you desire (I like to leave it on). Cut sweet potatoes into approx. 1/4-inch matchsticks. Put sweet potatoes into a large bowl and sprinkle the cornstarch over the top. Toss with your clean hands until all of the fries are coated. Drizzle with olive oil and toss again. Add maple syrup or brown sugar, chili powder, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, and salt. Toss until all of the fries are coated.
  • Lay fries on a baking sheet, making sure there is a little space around each fry - don't crowd or pile them! Depending on the size of your baking sheet, you may need to use two (I do).
  • Place in oven and bake until golden brown and many are crisp, about 25 minutes, turning carefully at right around the 15 minute mark. Remove fries from oven and let cool a bit.
  • While the fries are baking, make your ranch dip. In a small bowl, stir together all of the dip ingredients. Taste and add more salt and pepper if desired.
  • Add more salt to the fries if you like. Serve warm with the ranch dip.
