Ingredients

  • 3 sweet potatoes (about 1 1/2 pounds), peeled, each cut lengthwise into 8 wedges
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 teaspoon finely grated lime zest
  • 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
  • Chopped fresh cilantro (for serving)

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 450°. Toss sweet potatoes and oil on a foil-lined large rimmed baking sheet; season with salt and pepper.

Meanwhile, whisk mayonnaise, lime zest, and juice in a small bowl.

Season fries with salt, top with cilantro, and serve with lime mayo for dipping.
