Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lbs peeled sweet potato cut into 1/4 inch strips
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp smoked paprika
- Salt to taste
For the Maple Tahini Sauce
- 1/2 cup tahini
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3-5 tbsp water
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 F (preferably convection if possible) and line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato strips with oil and smoked paprika. Spread in an even layer onto both baking sheets, making sure not to overcrowd.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes then use a spatula to flip the fries and return to the oven for another 15-20 minutes or until crispy and blackened on the edges. Add salt to taste and let the fries sit on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before serving to finish crisping.
- To make the maple tahini sauce, blend all ingredients (except water) in a high speed blender. Add water to thin, until the sauce reaches a creamy, spreadable consistency.
