Sweet Potato Fries

[moakley]

do many terrorists subscribe to your channel because they think its Halal cooking dot com? 

[youllregretit]

baaaah. i like keep the skin on. and you cut them way bigger than i do. i like mine with salt pepper and brown sugar and oil all rolled up then cooked in the oven for a long amount of time. stir them every 15 minutes and wait till they're crispy. cayenne...bah...vegetarians and their need for spicey spicey stuff.

[hilahcooking]

@youllregretit I'm not vegetarian.

[AdIgnorantiam]

@youllregretit Well, youllregretit, when you make your own cooking show and it becomes as successful as Hilah's, you can video demo how you do your sweet potato fries. But in the meantime, how about a little courtesy? Because you sound like a stupid idiot.

[ATLGETREADY4ME]

@hilahcooking thanks for the friend invitation, sorry it took me so long to respond, my phone has been acting really stupid! I subscribed to your channel and I'd greatly appreciate if you'd return the favor. When you have time, check out my videos, "MEGASTAR IN THE MAKIN" and "its me again". I'd love to hear your feedback, rate, comment, subscribe, share, favorite, like ect. Btw I love sweet potato fries!! You can follow on facebook and twitter @jessehubbswifey

[javajunkie101]

This recipe looks wonderful

[nemoryer]

HOW LONG did you cook this for?

This video is not clear as to cooking time. Also 400 degrees sounds fine, though I'd seen other videos that bake at 450. Big difference.

[hilahcooking]

@nemoryer YES, I corrected myself in the description. 20 MINUTES. The full instructions are always on the website, too.

[Fancylooks]

Ummm, I have to try this. Sweet potatoes are not popular in Spain and I only tried then once, have to give them another try!!!

[hilahcooking]

@Fancylooks What?! How is that possible! They are so good. I hope you find some!

[Traveler2112]

I'll take sweet potato fries over regular potato fries any any day!! I like cajun seasoning on mine.

[hilahcooking]

@Traveler2112 Mmm ,spicy sweet potatoes!

[usafireandrescue]

Oh yummy! I adore sweet potato fries! Great recipe my beautiful friend. Always love your videos! Have a a wonderful weekend.

[hilahcooking]

@usafireandrescue Thank you, Amy! :)

[theroxeedoodle]

Hilah! You look amazing in this video, I agree that you look amazing in pink! ^.^

[hilahcooking]

@theroxeedoodle You are sweet! Thank you!

[eateastIndian]

Love sweet potato fries.. although i've never put Cayenne pepper on them..It's pretty cold out here too..snow never seems to go away :)...Hopefully summer will come soon.

I agree deep fried fries would be so gross. This is a much healthier version..btw Pink looks really good on you.

I am gonna try your corn fritters soon..!

[hilahcooking]

@eateastIndian Spicy sweet potato fries will warm you up! :)

[kozeraag]

I find sweet potato waaaaaaay too sweet. (Insane since I love almost everything sweet). But when I want fries they must be savory all the way. I have made turnip "fries" and green bean "fries" though. Delish!

[hilahcooking]

@kozeraag Mmm, turnip fries. Have you ever tried kale chips? That's pretty tasty, too.

[kozeraag]

@hilahcooking I actually have! Although they tasted a lot better when I just sucked the seasonings off. ;) The bitterness of the kale was still there. I might have done something wrong though because people seem to really love them!

[ZombiedustXXX]

Hey Hilah, I got scared when I saw you cutting that sweet potato! Hey, after the first cut, flip that bitch with the flat side against the cutting board for stability.

Thanks for the recipe. I've never made sweet potato fries. I know what I'm eating this weekend!

[hilahcooking]

@ZombiedustXXX Yes, I know, I am setting a bad example for kitchen safety.

[garenosborn]

Hilah, do you find that your sweet potato fries shrink much when you bake them? We made some a month ago or so and they were shoestring size by the time they were done baking.

[hilahcooking]

@garenosborn Hi Garen! It seems like the smaller you cut them to begin with, the more shrinkage there is. Also of course, the longer you cook them, the more shrinkage, so I like to do a high heat for a shorter time. AND, I think saving the salt for the end keeps them plumper because the salt isn't drawing moisture out while they cook.

[anmoose]

Hmmm... I have a couple of sweet potatoes just waiting for an excuse. Now I have the excuse. Those puppies can be *tough* the first cut or two! But they always lose, regardless.

I've done them salty, done them with brown sugar, even with cinnamon, never tried a sprinkle of cayenne. Never tried "oven frying" them, either. It happens tomorrow.

[hilahcooking]

@anmoose Tough to cut, especially when one hasn't sharpened one's knife in ages. :)

[XxBlackIrishxX]

I give you thus...... bye ! lol

[Jinn979]

Alright, who disliked this video ? sweet potato fries...sounds delicious :D

[hilahcooking]

[hilahcooking]

@VideoBhoy Mmm! Thanks for the update, man!

[theramenninja]

[elvnears]

I didn't know that pepper could burn! I just got home from 5 hours of class and this is the most valuable thing I've learned today! Yay!

[cisjohn2616]

I honestly don't think I have ever had sweet potato !

[PlatypusGuitar]

cant wait for winter to be over, im sick of being so cold. damn canadian weather!

[stooge81]

two things. #1 -sweet potatoes are like one of the greatest superfoods you can eat and mega-high in beta-carotene, and #2- you're rockin' that sash belt. ok, done.

[hilahcooking]

@stooge81 Thanks, Stoogie! I'm bringing sash belts back.

[KasCooks]

Now that's a mighty fine tater stick.

[westargentina]

What's that laugh at the end for? Lmaoo...I like the way you laugh. And it's always a delight to learn from ya...keep it coming mama!!!!

[hilahcooking]

@westargentina Thank you so much for watching, my man!

[westargentina]

@hilahcooking I should be the one thanking ya!!!!

[DrinkingChefs]

We are twins! We also made sweet potato fries recently. Bound to happen when great minds... or crazy minds... something. <3 Anyhoo... those look super delicious, and I want to make some right now too...

[hilahcooking]

@DrinkingChefs Man I loves me some sweet potato fries.

[busvlogger]

I freak'n hate pealing, but that peeler didn't look like too much of a pain! I need one!!! Hey, we did our first pseudo-cooking vid! I'ma send it to ya! I'm gonna start following you on Twitter too, yay!

[hilahcooking]

@busvlogger Dude! Get you a grown-up peeler! Or just eat the peels and be healthier than me ;)

[koztowz]

What a way to wake up... sweet tater fries and laughing at those crazy southerners bitchin about some snow.

[hilahcooking]

@koztowz Man, it's SERIOUS around here! ;)

[iloveflavor]

I am absolutely obsessed with sweet potatoes! I love the touch of cayenne you used. Delicious!!! I'm so glad it is finally warming up here :)

[hilahcooking]

@iloveflavor I, too, am feeling much better now that t-shirts are appropriate attire once again.

[XooBeautifulMommaooX]

You would be sooo cool to hang out with, your funny as fuck, and you make good ass food. ( : These fries look yummie jummie. lol <3

[hilahcooking]

@XooBeautifulMommaooX Come visit me, momma!

[XooBeautifulMommaooX]

@hilahcooking - If I had money, I'd be there with the quickness! ( : Your dog is such a cutie by the way.

[cozzyk]

I am always impressed with you girl. Going to try these! I didn't like sweet potatos as a girl for some silly reason but on many diets you can have them but not white potatos so they are now looking better to me lol. Plus as adult you like many things as a child you didn't.

[hilahcooking]

@cozzyk That's true! They are so good for us, too.

[BigAndTall666]

Sweet indeed!  :-*

[da959]

I tried a bag of potatoe chips made from sweet potatoes the other day. They sure had a whole different taste than any conventional chip I'd had before, but I liked them a lot. These fries look pretty tastey too.

[hilahcooking]

@da959 Yeah, they are good! Sweet and salty.

[JobeMinacum]

@hilahcooking That's what SHE said ohohohohoh!

[hilahcooking]

@JobeMinacum Oh, brother! :)

[ItsMeFawn]

I love sweet potatoes

[hilahcooking]

@ItsMeFawn Me too. I've been trying to eat them more often.

[ShadowNam275]

Sweet potatoes are awesome :D

[hilahcooking]

@ShadowNam275 I'm glad you can get them in Norway. ;) PS what are your agricultural exports over there?

[ShadowNam275]

@hilahcooking I'll check it :) I don't know what you may find in the big cities like Oslo, but I live a place where it only lives around 2000 people so our supermarkets are kind of small...

On one of the two supermarkets we have has theese fruit books and you can show the people who work there the fruit and they'll get it for you.

I see sweet potatoes once in a while though.

[ShadowNam275]

@hilahcooking Yeah, I checked and they had some mangos :)

[thiskidglows]

okay, this showed up in my feed and i don't ever remember subscribing... at all....

[Pippilly]

You must be following me around the interwebs because I only just recently looked up that recipe. I like it so much better when you do it! How long did you have them in the oven for?

[hilahcooking]

@Pippilly Yay! It was about 20 minutes total.

[svtcontour]

Sweet! I've never made any but I've had some at restaurants and its freaking awesome. Thanks for the video and its great as always. I like the idea of the cayenne to go with the sweet.

[hilahcooking]

@svtcontour It's such a nice change from regular potatoes. Plus they're all healthy an' shit.

[N1Jr]

<3 Sweet potatoes :P

[Aussiegirl265]

Wow you cut a lot off the ends! I hate to waste.

They look very nice though.

[hilahcooking]

@Aussiegirl265 Well, it all goes in the compost. And I like my fries to be evenly shaped! ;)

[JuicyJJ3]

Nice!! I wonder...is it possible to turn these into a dessert if you add some brown sugar on them? Or possibly make a brown sugar type dipping sauce to go with them AFTER you made them? Either way, I am going to try this, Hilah! Thank you for helping me become a decent cook! :)

[hilahcooking]

@JuicyJJ3 Aw, hell yeah, dude! Now you are thinking like a natural cook! I'd put the brown sugar on them after you flip at the halfway point so it doesn't burn.

[SuperMrsnowman]

texas? YES I CAN MAKE REDNECK JOKES <3

[hilahcooking]

@SuperMrsnowman Only if they're funny. :)

[CookingWithCarolyn]
