Before I tell you the recipe, I want to share the secret behind slicing the potato into these perfect little french fries. It's called a PrepWorks Jumbo Potato Cutter. I bought it on Amazon for $17.39. When you first use it, you'll think you're going to break it when you push down the handle; soften the potatoes up in the microwave for 2-3 minutes and they'll slice perfectly! I watched a video on youtube before I bought it so if you're a little leary, there are plenty of videos out there for your review.
3-5 small sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced
2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 - 1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper or cayenne pepper
Peel the potatoes and cook in the microwave for 2-3 minutes -- just enough to soften them enough so they slice well. Place them on a baking sheet. Pour a small amount of olive oil in your hands and toss the potato slices until all of the potatoes are covered with oil. Place them on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with the cinnamon and salt; if you like them spicy, sprinkle pepper of choice and toss them again. Make sure the fries are spread out so that there is only one layer of fries. Cook them in a preheated oven at 450*F for 20 minutes; flip the fries over and bake them another 15-20 minutes.
