Total Time30 minutes
Course: Side Dish
Keyword: Potato Fries

Ingredients

  • Oil for frying
  • 2-3 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into fries
  • salt
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup crushed pineapple

Instructions

  • Fill a medium sauce pan about halfway full with oil. Heat over medium high heat until hot. (I never measure with a thermometer. Instead, I test the oil with the handle of a wooden spoon. If the oil bubbles around the handle, I know it’s hot enough.)
  • Add a handful of sweet potato fries and cook until slightly browned and crisp, about 5-6 minutes/batch. Drain on paper towel or cheesecloth lined plate and sprinkle with salt immediately. Keep warm in an oven set at its lowest setting. Continue in batches until done.
  • For the sauce: Combine sour cream, brown sugar and pineapple in a small bowl. Mix well. Refrigerate until serving. This tastes fine served right away or prepared up to 6 hours in advance.
