Equipment

Ingredients

  • 600 g raw sweet potatoes (2-3 medium sweet potatoes)
  • 60 g peanut oil (or any high smoke point oil)(3 tbsp)
  • 8 g cornstarch (3 tsp)
  • salt to taste
  • 1 spicy mayo recipe

Instructions

  • Set oven to 210°C/410°F with convection.
  • Wash and peel the sweet potatoes.
    Cut the sweet potato in half first. Then cut the halfs into 3 pieces if they're large and 2 pieces if they're small.
    But don't overcomplicate it either, just try your best to keep them all the same size.

  • Roast the sweet potatoes in the oven for 20 minutes.
    Then turn each wedge over on the tray and put back in the oven until nicely coloured and crispy. Approx. 15-20 minutes more.

Notes

Be careful not to burn yourself when removing the trays from the oven because of the hot oil. 
Serve right away as the crispiness does not last long.
