Sweet Potato Fries With Chipotle Mayonnaise (Yam Fries)

"Taste of 2008! This is a nice change from regular fries and these definitely will tempt your taste buds. Served along with a nice spicy chipotle mayonnaise it satisfies many cravings! Although these fries are done in the oven if you prefer you can deep fry for a more crispy effect. Enjoy!"

  1. I'll never use another sweet potato fry recipe ever again. This one is a keeper! The spices and herbs together work so well with the sweetness from the potatoes. I loved it with the spicy mayo as well. Overall a great recipe!
     
  2. This dip is amazing with sweet potato fries. My addition to it was 1 clove of minced garlic and increased the cumin to 1 tsp. It's certainly a family favourite.
     
  3. Delicious! I think the real star here is the spicy mayo dip. Oh my gosh, it is so yummy! I used Vegenaise (a vegan version of mayo..it is surprisingly good). I couldn't get the chipotle in a adobo sauce but found a small can of chipotle in adobo salsa - so I used 2 T. of that and it was fantastic. No need to chop up a chipotle! The sweet potato fries were very tasty with the spices, but I think I'll just do them plain with olive oil and kosher salt next time. I think that would go perfectly with the dipping sauce. By the way, I ended up using the leftover dip as a salad dressing!
     
  4. My family had an OMG foodie moment. I followed the recipe except for adding a little brown sugar when mixing with the oil. The complexity of the flavors...fennel, oregano, coriander, combined with the chipotle mayo was phenomenal. Made me wish I were born Mexican. Buena! Hijole!! Don Quixote!!! ...or something like that.
     
  5. I had been craving this Chipotle Mayo Dip I had at a restarant called Hell's Kitchen while visiting Minneapolis. I just buy the Sweet Potato Fries at Costo-- and use this dip! It tastes very close to Hell's Kitchens dip! I love it--<br/>I used Chipotle Sauce (found at Kroger stores), Cumin, Mayo and added 1 Tbsp. chopped cilantro! So yummy ! Thanks!

  1. Yum! I love the chipotle mayo with these. I seasoned the fries w/ the ground coriander and cumin instead of the fennel (didn't have any on hand). The fries were a bit soggy, despite being under the broiler for the last 5 minutes of cooking, but nonetheless they were fab! Thanks for posting.
