Ingredients
For 3 to 4 people
1 kg sweet potatoes or 1 kg oven-fried sweet potato
4 tablespoons of olive oil
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
salt and pepper
a handful of canned corn
a handful of canned black beans
1 small red onion
a handful of cherry tomatoes
1 jalapeño pepper
100 grams of cheddar cheese
a few tablespoons of guacamole
some cilantro to taste
For the sauce:
125 grams of crème fraîche
3 tablespoons Oliehoorn fries sauce
rind of one lime
juice of half a lime
ground chili flakes to taste
Here's how to make it
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Place a sheet of baking paper on a baking sheet. Wash the sweet potatoes, pat them dry well, leave the skin on and cut into thin fries. Little time? You can also buy pre-cut sweet potatoes in French fries at the supermarket.
Place the sweet potato fries in a large bowl and add 4 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika and some salt and pepper to taste. Stir to mix well.
Then spread the sweet potato fries on the baking sheet and bake for 25 to 30 minutes until tender. Toss gently halfway through.
Meanwhile, make the sauce. Stir together the crème fraîche, chipotle sauce and the juice of half a lime. Also add the zest of 1 lime and season further with ground chili flakes. Set aside for a moment.
Continue with the toppings. Grate the cheddar cheese and cut the tomatoes into wedges and the red onion into thin rings. Thinly slice the jalapeño pepper. Rinse the beans and corn briefly under the tap in a strainer.
A few minutes before the end of the oven time, sprinkle the cheddar over the fries to allow the cheese to melt nicely.
Remove the fries from the oven and place on a large platter. Spoon some guacamole here and there on the fries and also some sauce. Serve the rest of the sauce on the side separately.
Top the loaded fries with the onion, tomato wedges, black beans, corn and cilantro.
