SWEET POTATO STEAK FRIES WITH CRUNCHY SPICES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Cut the skins off the sweet potatoes, squaring off the round sides to make each potato into a large rectangle. Cut into long fries about 1/4-inch thick and 1 inch wide. (If not using potatoes immediately, soak in water for up to 1 day. Drain and pat dry before cooking.)
• Put two large sheet pans in the oven to heat. Toss the potatoes, and skins if you like, with oil, paprika and 2 teaspoons of the salt. Arrange in one layer on the hot pans. (Don't use parchment paper; it will make the potatoes soggy.) Roast until tender and starting to brown on the bottom, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, grind the cumin, coriander and 1 teaspoon salt together. Mix in the brown sugar.
• Remove pans from the oven and raise the heat to 450 degrees, or set to broil. With a spatula, carefully loosen the fries and turn each one over. Sprinkle with the spice and sugar mixture. Return to the oven and bake just until the fries are blistered and sizzling vigorously, about another 5 minutes. (If your oven has a convection feature, use it.) Do not overcook, or the fries will become leathery. Cool slightly.

SWEET POTATO NOODLES (JAPCHAE)

Steps:

• Cook the sweet potato noodles in a large pot of boiling water for 4 to 5 minutes. Immediately drain and rinse thoroughly under cold water. Be sure not to overcook the noodles, or they will lose their chewy texture. If you like, cut the noodles with scissors into 6- to 7-inch lengths for easier eating.
• Blanch the spinach in boiling water. Rinse immediately under cold water, squeeze the water from the leaves and form into a ball, and then cut the ball in half. Combine the spinach, half the garlic, 1/2 teaspoon of the sesame oil, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Set aside to let the flavors soak in.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef, the remaining garlic, 1 teaspoon of the soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon of the sesame oil. Stir-fry until the beef is cooked, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the onion, mushrooms, and carrot and cook until the onion is translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the green onions and stir-fry for another minute. Remove from the heat.
• In a large bowl, thoroughly combine the noodles, beef mixture, spinach, remaining 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, and the sugar. Serve warm, sprinkled with sesame seeds.
