• 1 lb peeled sweet potatoes cut into 1/4″ match-sticks
• 2 T extra virgin olive oil
• 1/2 t cumin
• 1/2 t oregano
• 1/2 t coriander
• 1 t sea salt
• 1 t parsley

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. 

 

In a small bowl combine cumin, oregano, coriander, salt and parsley.

 

Place sweet potatoes in a pile directly on baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. 

 

Use hands to toss until all pieces are well coated.  Sprinkle seasoning mixture on top and toss again with hands to coat. 

 

Arrange sweet potatoes in a single layer so that pieces are not touching each other.  Place pan in oven and bake for 15 minutes. 

 

Use a metal spatula to gently flip fries and then return pan to oven. Cook for an additional 15-20 minutes or until fries are starting to lightly brown and crisp. 

 

Remove pan from oven and cool 5 minutes. 

 

Serve immediately.
