With the crunch of every bite and the sweetness of every chip, there's nothing to beat the supremacy of sweet potato chips.

This morning, my mother went to the market and bought some kamote, also known as sweet potatoes. As usual, she asked me to boil it as our afternoon snack. But then, it's a little bit boring to eat it plain. That's why I got some ideas!

I've been thinking about making some sweet potato chips. But I want to have some french fries. So I thought, why not try to add the concept of sweet potato chips and french fries? And that's what I did.

Ingredients

For this recipe, we need:

  • Sweet potatoes
  • Sugar

Procedures

Step 1:
I washed the sweet potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Then, I peeled it using a peeler. After peeling, I washed it once again to make sure it was clean.

Step 2:
I thought of cutting the sweet potatoes in a circular shape like chips, but I cut them vertically like french fries. After cutting, I washed it once again to remove the starch.

Step 3:
I heated the pan and then put some oil. I wait for the oil to be hot and ready for frying. Once the oil was already hot, I started to fry the sweet potatoes. I waited until the sweet potatoes turned golden brown or crispy.

Step 4:
After I fried the sweet potatoes, I thought of seasoning it with just a pinch of salt. But I'm craving something sweet this time, so I coated it with caramelized sugar.

I caramelized some sugar in the pan, then put the fried sweet potatoes and tossed it until the caramelized sugar coated the fried sweet potatoes evenly.

Final results

After the procedure and hard work, I'm proud to present my snack for today! "Sweet potato fries" with every bite there's a crunch and a sweetness on every piece. It's perfect to have this while watching my favorite drama. Yum!
