Tasty Oven Yam Fries

TASTY OVEN YAM FRIES
3 large yams
Salt/black pepper/ground cumin
Olive oil

1. Wash yams, leave skin on or remove, cut into desired fry size.
2. Let soak in cold water for at least 1 hour.
3. Drain and dry well.
4. Preheat oven 375.
5. Toss the fries with oil and seasonings. Make sure they are all coated.
6. Spread evenly in single layer on parchment-lined pan.
7. Bake 20 minutes.
8. Kick up oven temp to 425 and bake another 20-25 minutes until tender and golden.
9. Remove and drain on paper towel before serving. You can also sprinkle with a little more salt if desired.
   *You can do this with regular baking potatoes. Regular potatoes will be a little crispier due to the fact they have more starch. Yams have more of a sugar content which prevents it from being super crispy. Still delicious.
