Ingredients

1 large sweet potato peeled and cut (about 1 lb.)
1 Tbsp. cornstarch
1 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 C mayonnaise
1/4 C. spicy brown mustard
2 Tbsp pure maple syrup

Instructions

Peel and cut your sweet potato into thin fries (think McDonalds fry size). Soak in water overnight in the refrigerator.
Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Drain the sweet potatoes and dry really well on a clean kitchen towel.
Combine mayonnaise, spicy brown mustard and maple syrup in a small bowl. Set aside.
In a large bowl, toss the sweet potatoes and cornstarch together until the sweet potatoes are coated. Toss with the olive oil, garlic salt and pepper.
Divide the sweet potatoes between the two baking sheets and spread them out so that they are not touching each other. Bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, stir the fries and rotate baking pans as needed. Bake for another 10-15 minutes. Check frequently aftter the 10 minutes and remove fries as they are done. Overcooked fries will burn and larger fries will take longer to bake. Serve immediately with the maple mustard dipping sauce.
