Sweet Potato Fries

Sweet Potato Fries with Coconut & Lime Dressing

Quick & easy, but lots of flavour, packed with nutrients & a great twist on a family favourite

Ingredients

• 1 medium sweet potato per person

• Olive oil

• Salt

• Paprika (I use smoked)

For the dressing

• 1 tin coconut milk

• 1 teaspoon tahini

• Juice of a lime

• Seasoning to taste

Method

Chop the sweet potato into chip shapes, I tend not to make them too long as sweet potato doesn’t always go as crispy as potato chips.

Mix in a bowl with the oil, salt & paprika, then sprinkle evenly across a baking tray & put in a medium oven for about 20 minutes. At 10 minutes give them a shake & mix around to cook evenly. After 20 minutes I tend to turn the oven up to crisp them up, but go by your own oven, so keep checking & turning them until they are crisp & evenly cooked

For the dressing, if kept cool coconut milk in a can tends to separate, so I scoop off the creamed part (you can use the water in a smoothie!), then put in a pan to melt, adding the tahini, lime juice & seasoning to taste - you can add some of the coconut water if you want it more thin. Simply sprinkle some on the sweet potatoes to serve & use as a side of dipping sauce (note that if you refrigerate any leftover sauce it will set again, so just pop in a bowl of warm water).
