Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 lb. orange-fleshed sweet potatoes  
  • 2 Tbs. olive oil 
  • 1/4 tsp. coarse sea salt, plus more, to taste 
  • 3 Tbs. grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese 
  • 2 Tbs. chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley 
  • 1 garlic clove, minced 

Instruction

  • Preheat an oven to 450°F.
  • Rinse and dry the sweet potatoes. Cut the potatoes lengthwise, without peeling them, into slices 1/2 inch thick, then cut each slice into batons about 1/4 inch wide and 3 inches long.
  • Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet, and toss with the olive oil and the 1/4 tsp. salt. Roast, stirring with a spatula halfway through the baking time, until the potatoes are tender and browned on the edges, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the cheese, parsley and garlic. Add the warm oven fries and stir gently to coat. Season with salt and serve immediately. Serves 4.
