Preparation – 10 minutes
Cut the sweet potato into thick (julienne) strips. The thicker the fries are cut, the longer they need to be baked. Wash the sweet potato fries under cold running water.
Leave them soaking under water for a few minutes. Pat the fries very dry with a tea towel. Drying the fries well ensures that the sweet potato fries become crispy when cooked.
Coat the fries with cornflour, salt, paprika and cayenne pepper. Be generous with the salt, as this helps to remove the moisture from the sweet potato. Drizzle with olive oil.
Line a baking tray with baking parchment and spread out the fries on it, leaving some space between each fry.

Baking the sweet potato fries – 20 minutes
Preheat the oven to a temperature of 180 degrees Celsius. Bake the sweet potato fries for 20 minutes until crispy, turning the fries once halfway through cooking.
These fries are delicious with a bowl of homemade tzatziki. Enjoy your meal!
