I first tried these sweet potato fries at a restaurant in New York City. I was amazed at how crunchy and flavorful they were. I asked the chef how he made them and he gave me the recipe. I've been making them ever since. They make a great side dish for burgers, sandwiches, or just to snack on. The combination of the sweetness of the potatoes and the savory spices make them irresistible.
