HI MEMORIAL DAY. You know what that means? B-B-Q! BURGERS! SUMMERTIME! I love this nice weather, and I love it even more when I have awesome sweet potato fries to spend it with. Dip them in a nice spicy mayo and you’ve got yourself quite the addition to your summer.

2 sweet potatoes, washed and cut into 1/4″ wedges
2 tbs. salt
1 tsp. pepper
1 tsp. paprika
3 tbs. olive oil

Spicy Aioli:
1 c. mayonnaise
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp. white pepper
1 tsp. cumin
Handful fresh parsley chopped

Preheat oven to 450 degrees and grab a sheet pan. Cover sweet potato fries in olive oil, then sprinkle with salt, garlic, pepper and paprika mixture. Toss once more, then place in oven for 10-15 minutes. In the meantime mix together all ingredients for aioli and set aside. Once sweet potatoes are soft but crispy on the outside, remove from oven and let cool until ready to serve!

Note for making superb sweet potato fries: YUM GUYS, REALLY. I love sweet potatoes with the spicy/salty aioli (not that it has anything to do with how delicious mayo is). Sometimes people dip them in ridiculous maple syrup sauces and it makes me want to die!! THEY’RE SWEET ENOUGH ALREADY! GAHD! I stole the seasoning mixture from Paula Deen, who is a god in my eyes. Surprisingly this has no butter in it…
