This really isn’t a recipe for sweet potato fries. Just a “How To” because the only ingredients I used were sweet potatoes and extra virgin olive oil. Sometimes you just really want to have something fried but don’t want to feel guilty about eating it afterwards. Maybe that’s just me; but here is an alternative to regular fries and using a fry daddy. It would be dangerous to my health, and I don’t have the counter space, to have a fryer because I love french fries and fried pickles! I’ll stick to the stove.

Sweet Potato Fries on the stove!

1. Scrub your potatoes! Veggies are pretty dirty in general, because they come from dirt and also you have no idea how many people have touched your food before you took it home. Ok rant over back to cooking.

2. I am not a big fan of skin so I peel it off. Sometimes I’ll leave a little skin on for a bit of a flavor change.

3. Chop it into fries! sweet potato fries

4. Put a couple tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet. Heat it up on medium heat. sweet potato fries

5. Put in the heated skillet. Cook it for about 10 minutes moving the fries around on a pretty constant bases until desired crispiness.

Enjoy your sweet potato fries! I like to dip mine in ranch. sweet potato fries

I have this biscuit recipe because my husband requires bread at all meals. He doesn’t always get it but he’d prefer to have it. Here is my simple biscuit recipe I sometimes make him because it is easy and simple to make and it doesn’t take all day to make.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 5 Tbsp butter, cut into tiny pieces
  • 2-4 Tbsp honey, depending on how sweet you want them, I normally do 3
  • 3/4 cup milk, whole, buttermilk, 2% I’ve used all and prefer whole, they all change the taste a little bit

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400° and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper
  2. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt and butter until it’s coarse
  3. In a small bowl, combine milk and honey
  4. Pour milk mixture into flour mixture and combine until all of the ingredients are no longer dry
  5. Put dough on a flour surface and kneed for a couple of minutes
  6. Roll dough into a log a couple of inches thick
  7. from log, cut 1.5-2 inch thick biscuits and place on cookie sheet
