Sweetandhotpolentafries Recipes

Steps:

• Brush an 8-inch square baking dish with oil.
• Combine water, polenta, herbs, and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a heavy medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat, whisking. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring constantly with a long-handled wooden spoon, until polenta begins to pull away from side of pan, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in cheese and butter until incorporated, then transfer polenta to baking dish, spreading evenly with a dampened rubber spatula. Chill, uncovered, until set, about 45 minutes.
• Preheat broiler. Line a baking sheet with foil and brush with oil.
• Unmold polenta, then cut into 16 (about 4- by 1-inch) sticks. Brush tops with oil and space evenly on baking sheet. Broil about 4 inches from heat until golden, 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400.
• Cut the sweet potatoes into sticks 1/4 to 1/2 inch wide and 3 inches long, and toss them with the oil.
• Mix the spices, salt and pepper in a small bowl, and toss them with the sweet potatoes. Spread them out on 2 rimmed baking sheets.
• Bake until brown and crisp on the bottom, about 15 minutes, then flip and cook until the other side is crisp, about 10 minutes. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425ºF/220ºC.
• Slice the ends off of the sweet potato and then slice it in half. Take one half and slice it horizontally 4 times then slice vertically 4 times to cut into fries.
• In a large bowl mix fries and ingredients until evenly spread.
• Place fries on a prepared baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes or until fluffy inside and crunchy on the outside.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat oil in a deep fryer or deep heavy skillet to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C). While the oil is heating, you can begin to warm your gravy.
• Place the fries into the hot oil, and cook until light brown, about 5 minutes. Make the fries in batches if necessary to allow them room to move a little in the oil. Remove to a paper towel lined plate to drain.
• Place the fries on a serving platter, and sprinkle the cheese over them. Ladle gravy over the fries and cheese, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• For the sweet potato fries: Soak the potatoes in cold water 30 minutes. Dry on paper towels.
• Stir together the brown sugar, garlic, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
• For the creamy barbecue sauce: Stir together the barbecue sauce, mayonnaise and House Seasoning in a bowl.
• For the spicy sauce: Stir together the ketchup, mayonnaise, House Seasoning and hot sauce in a separate bowl.
• For the sweet potato fries: Pour the oil to a depth of 3 inches in a Dutch oven. Heat the oil to 325 degrees F. Line wire racks with paper towels.
• Stir together the cornstarch and seltzer water in a medium bowl. Dip the sweet potatoes in the cornstarch mixture in batches until coated. (The coating will be thin. Stir the cornstarch mixture after each batch.) Fry the sweet potatoes, in batches, until they float to the top, 1 to 2 minutes. (The sweet potatoes won't brown yet.) Remove to lined wire racks to drain.
• Increase the oil temperature to 350 degrees F.
• Fry the potatoes a second time, in batches, until browned and crispy, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove to the lined racks to drain. Sprinkle immediately with the brown sugar seasoning. Serve right away with the sauces.
• Stir together the garlic and onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. Cut each unwrapped tube of polenta in half crosswise, then remove wrapper and cut each half lengthwise into 8 wedges.
• Drizzle oil on a large rimmed baking sheet. Place polenta wedges on baking sheet; season with salt and pepper, and turn gently to coat with oil. Arrange in a single layer.
• Roast, turning wedges halfway through with a metal spatula, until golden and crisp, 45 to 50 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Transfer to a shallow dish; toss with oregano, and serve.
