Spicy Baked Yam Fries

Looking for another way to cook a yam (or sweet potato)? Love spicy food? Love oven fries? Then you’ll probably love these.

What You’ll Need:

• 1 yam
• 1 tbsp grape seed oil
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
• 1/4 tsp chili powder
• 1/2 tsp onion powder
• 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 tbsp organic ketchup

Pre-heat your oven to 425 degrees. Rinse yam thoroughly and slice it into thin strips or wedges. Put the yam wedges in a glass casserole dish or on a baking sheet and drizzle 1 tbsp grapseed oil on top. Toss yam wedges in the oil until they’re lightly coated.

In a small dish, combine garlic powder, cayenne pepper, chili powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes and salt. Mix with a spoon and lightly dust the mixture over the yam wedges. Toss the yam wedges in the mixture to evenly coat.

Bake for 20 min. Toss them with a spatula and continue to bake for another 10- 15 more minutes (30- 35 min total). Serve with organic ketchup.
