Ingredients
- 4 sweet potatoes scrubbed and cut into thick matchsticks
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Place the sweet potatoes in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Let them sit for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Drain the water and pat the potatoes dry. Sprinkle the sweet potatoes with cornstarch, olive oil, paprika, and garlic powder. Toss to combine. Transfer the potatoes to a baking pan, making sure they are on a single layer.
- Bake for 18 minutes. Flip the potatoes over and bake for 10 more minutes or until crispy and done.

Notes
- Soaking the sweet potatoes in water helps remove some of the excess potato starch which
results in a crispier sweet potato fry.
