Garlic And Herb Grilled Sweet Potato Fries Recipes

GRILLED SWEET POTATO FRIES WITH HONEY-MUSTARD-MINT DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Whisk together the Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, honey and mint in a bowl, and season with salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature while you prepare the fries.
• Put the sweet potatoes in a large pot, cover with water and add 1 tablespoon salt. Bring to a boil and cook until a paring knife inserted into the center of the potatoes meets with some resistance, 10 to 15 minutes depending on size. When cool enough to handle, cut each sweet potato into 6 wedges.
• Heat a gas or charcoal grill to medium-high. Brush the potato wedges with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until slightly charred and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove to a platter and serve with the dipping sauce.

GRILLED SWEET POTATOES WITH LIME AND CILANTRO

Steps:

• Parcook the potatoes: Place in a pot of water and boil until fork-tender; let cool. Slice each potato lengthwise into eighths.
• Preheat a grill to medium or place a cast-iron grill pan over medium heat. Mix 1 tablespoon salt, the lime zest and cayenne in a small bowl.
• Brush the potato wedges with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until golden brown on all sides (including the skin) and just cooked through, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter; immediately season with the salt mixture and sprinkle with cilantro.

GRILLED SWEET POTATO FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat and oil the grates.
• In a large pot, add the sweet potatoes and cover with cold salted water. Bring them to a boil over medium heat. Lower the heat and simmer until you can pierce each potato with a paring knife and there is little to no resistance, approximately 25 to 30 minutes. Do not overcook.
• Transfer the sweet potatoes to a large bowl of cold water to halt their cooking process. Once the potatoes are cool, drain well. Peel the potatoes and cut them lengthwise into thick wedges, about 6 wedges per potato. Put the potatoes into a large bowl and coat them with olive oil. Add the brown sugar, cayenne, salt, pepper, cinnamon and cloves and toss to evenly coat. Put the wedges on the preheated grill. Cook until they are heated through and caramelized, approximately 3 to 4 minutes per side. Serve them as they are, or with a side of mint and cumin aioli, if desired.

SWEET POTATO FRIES WITH BASIL SALT AND GARLIC MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place the sweet potato "fries" on a foil-lined baking sheet and toss with the olive oil. Bake until golden, about 45 minutes.
• Meanwhile combine the basil, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. In another small bowl combine the mayonnaise, garlic, and lemon juice, and stir to combine.
• When the sweet potato fries come out of the oven, sprinkle with the basil salt. Serve with the garlic mayonnaise alongside for dipping.

SWEET POTATO GARLIC FRIES

Steps:

• For the caramelized onions: Heat the oil over medium heat in a large nonstick skillet. Add the onions, vinegar, salt and pepper, stirring occasionally, until the onions are deep golden brown, about 20 minutes.
• Fries: Drain the potatoes and dry completely on a clean kitchen towel. In a large heavy-bottomed saucepan, pour enough oil to fill the pan about a third of the way. Heat over medium-high heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil reaches 375 degrees F. (If you don't have a thermometer a cube of bread will brown in about 5 minutes.)
• While the oil is heating, in a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and 2 1/2 cups water until smooth. Coat the potatoes in the batter. Transfer 8 to 10 potatoes to the oil, allowing any excess batter to drip back into the bowl. Fry until golden and crisp, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining potatoes.
• For the sauce: In a small skillet, melt the butter over low heat. Add the thyme and garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Pour the sauce over the fries and gently toss until coated.
• Place the fries on a platter and spoon the onions on top. Sprinkle with fontina and serve immediately.

• Mix parsley, thyme and garlic in small bowl. Sprinkle over sweet potatoes.
