Pan Fried Sweet Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Slice the sweet potatoes thinly, approximately 1/4-1/2 inch thick.
• Melt butter in a large hot frying pan over medium-high heat, then places slices in the pan in a single layer. Sprinkle with salt.
• Fry the potatoes until lightly browned on one side, then flip over each slice. You'll need to watch them carefully and move the slices in the hottest part of the pan to the edges so that they all get browned. Adjust the heat down to medium if needed to keep them from browning too quickly. Total browning time took me about 5-7 minutes.
• When both sides are lightly browned, sprinkle brown sugar and cinnamon across the top. Wait 1-2 minutes and then toss the potatoes until the brown sugar is caramelized (approx 1 more minute).
• Remove from pan and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Dice sweet potatoes no thicker than 1/4 inch thick.
• Place pan on medium heat to begin warming. While waiting dice onion and prepare garlic.
• Place oil in pan and add potatoes, garlic, and onions and then coat well(be sure that oil is not left to heat up or it will scorch the onions and garlic).
• Sprinkle salt and pepper just after adding other ingredients to the pan.
• Allow the potatoes to cook for a few minutes and check for browning. Keep temperature from getting too hot.
• Stir occasionally until potatoes are to your desired doneness (approx 10 minutes for me.
• Turn off heat and add brown sugar while still hot. Stir well and serve.
• * variation* try using butter instead of olive oil for a more sweet and traditional flavor.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add peeled sweet potatoes, and boil for about 4 minutes. Remove from water, and cut into 1/2 inch slices.

Steps:

• Place sweet potato fries into a large bowl, drizzle with 1/4 cup olive oil, and toss to coat. Mix steak seasoning, black pepper, garlic powder, salt, and paprika in a separate small bowl until thoroughly combined. Use your left hand to toss fries with olive oil as you sprinkle the seasoning mixture over them with your right hand.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and place sweet potato pieces into the hot oil. Cover skillet, pan-fry for 5 minutes; uncover and turn fries. Place cover back over fries and cook 5 more minutes; continue turning fries and covering until sweet potatoes are tender, about 10 more minutes.
