👩‍🍳 Instructions (The AI's Game Plan)

🎯 Follow along with our AI chef's step-by-step adventure. Results may vary wildly!

1

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and place a baking sheet in the oven to preheat as well. This helps in crisping up the fries later on.

⏱️ 10 min (ish) 🌡️ 425°F

AI Wisdom: Ensure the baking sheet is inside the oven while preheating.
2

In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato matchsticks with cornstarch until evenly coated. The cornstarch helps in absorbing moisture and achieving a crispy exterior.

⏱️ 5 min (ish)

AI Wisdom: Coating the sweet potatoes evenly is key for crispiness.
3

Add olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the bowl. Toss well to coat the sweet potatoes with the seasoning mixture.

⏱️ 3 min (ish)

AI Wisdom: Ensure even seasoning for balanced flavor.
4

Carefully remove the hot baking sheet from the oven. Place the seasoned sweet potatoes in a single layer on the sheet. They should sizzle upon contact for extra crispiness.

⏱️ 2 min (ish) 🌡️ 425°F

AI Wisdom: Spread the fries out evenly for even cooking.
5

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping the fries halfway through, until they are golden brown and crisp.

⏱️ 22 min (ish) 🌡️ 425°F

AI Wisdom: Keep an eye on them towards the end to prevent burning.
