As we’ve seen, fast food can be very very high in sodium and also fat. Normally the
unhealthy fat like trans fat. So today I’m going to show you how to make some fries at
home. These are oven sweet potato fries that are a great source of healthy nutrients as
well as fiber and also a fun thing to have at home instead of fast food. A lot healthier.
So we have this sweet potato cut into strips like fries. We’re going to add the olive
oil and the salt and pepper. And that’s our oven being ready, its pre-heated as our
recipe says preheated to 450. And then you’re going to mix that olive oil, salt and pepper
around so you make sure that every fry is covered in some olive oil. Ok, and then we
have out prepared baking sheet. I sprayed that with cooking spray. You’re going to
spread these out. Try to make them even. You don’t want any fry covering another one.
So you want them all even on the pan. And then you’re going to have a little olive
oil left over in the bowl and you’re going to sprinkle the remaining olive oil over some
of the fries like so. And we’re going to put them in the oven for about 20 minutes.
But you really need to watch them depending on your oven. You want to kind of flip them
occasionally if they look like they’re getting too dark. So we’re going to put this in
the oven and we’re going to cook these up. And here are out finished oven sweet potato
fries. This is one serving, that whole potato was two servings but each serving is 130 calories
and 5 grams of fat. It’s got the healthy fat from the olive oil. So here’s a way
you can have fast food at home.
