How people cook with it
Sweet potato fries are a versatile side dish that can complement many meals. They are a popular alternative to traditional potato fries.

- With grilled chicken

To prepare, spread the frozen sweet potato fries in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in a preheated oven according to package directions, usually around 400-425°F (200-220°C). Flip them halfway through the cooking time to ensure even crisping. They can also be cooked in an air fryer for a quicker, crispier result. Watch them closely to prevent burning, as sweet potatoes can caramelize quickly.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to regular potato fries, sweet potato fries have a distinct sweetness and a softer texture when cooked. Their natural sugars contribute to a deeper caramelization and a slightly different flavor profile that pairs well with both savory and sweet condiments.
