Sweet potato fries are one of my most favorite indulgences. There's something about that salty/sweet thing that is just irresistible.
I discovered an amazing sweet potato fry recipe a year or so ago that I have just now decided to recreate and make my own. The secret to this recipe is the coconut flour. It makes the fries get crispy on the outside and super soft and chewy on the inside. They're utterly perfect.
I served mine with a homemade spicy ketchup that takes legit- 1 minute to make. It's a simple combination of store-bought ketchup and Indian spices.
