Cumbersome Sweet Potato Fries step by step
- Wash sweet potatoes well if you intend to leave the skins on. Cut all of the potatoes into 3/8 of an inch thick sticks. If you choose you can very well peel the potatoes as well..

- In your deep fryer, turkey fryer (what I use), or pot (following your specific instructions as to how much) add oil (canola or lard) and heat to 375°F (190 degrees C). This process can be started while the potatoes are soaking..

- Once poatatoes have soaked and oild is 375 (190) add the potatoes in batches according to the size of your fryer or pot (DO NOT OVERLOAD) and cook each batch for about 10 minutes or until golden brown..
- Drain potatoes on paper towel and season with Brown Sugar, Chili Powder, Salt, Garlic Powder and White Sugar mixture to taste. Do not place batches on top of one another as they come out of the fryer as the bottom will get overlu seasoned..
- What I typically do is use the leftover brine for chickens. I just add two whole chickens and soak them over night. I'll add that recipe soon..
