1 large sweet potatoes
2 Tbsp oil
4 Tbsp. polenta
1 tsp. sea salt (more to taste, if desired)
extra flavour options:
ground cumin
smoked paprika
cayenne
1. Scrub the sweet potatoes well under running water. Slice them into long sticks 1cm thick. Place them in a bowl of water, swish around a few times, then drain (this step helps remove some of the starch from the potato). Place potatoes on a clean tea towel and dry thoroughly. Let them air dry while you prepare everything else.
2. Preheat the oven to 200°C. On low heat, melt coconut oil or ghee in a small saucepan. Place cut potatoes in a plastic bag, seal and shake bag vigorously to coat (this process can also be done on a cookie sheet, drizzle the oil over and toss very well to coat). Add cornmeal and salt to the bag and toss well to coat.
3. Place fries on a lined baking sheet, making sure that they are not touching. Bake for 30-40 minutes until golden brown and crisp (no need to flip them halfway through cooking).
(Served with steak and salad.)
