Ingredients

  • 3 large sweet potatoes
  • 2-3 tablespoon coconut oil

To make the cajun seasoning

  • 1 teaspoon himalayan pink salt
  • 2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes

Instructions

  • Preheat oven at 220 degrees celsius or gas mark 7.
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper
  • Combine all of the ingredients for the cajun seasoning and grind in a spice mill.
  • Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes and dry them off.
  • Cut each end off before cutting the potatoes lengthways into thin strips so they resemble french fries.
  • Transfer the fries into a large bowl and coat them with coconut oil. Use your hands to ensure the oil is evenly distributed.
  • Sprinkle the cajun seasoning into the bowl and work the spices into the fries. You can use as little or as much as you desire.
  • Place the fries on the parchment paper, spread them so they bake evenly and not overcrowd the tray.
  • Bake for roughly 25 minutes, flip the fries half through. The fries should be golden brown and crispy not burnt, timing may vary.
  • Serve with your favourite dip.
