Khyati's Health-O-Meter Says:

Sweet potato is an excellent source of vitamin A (in the form of beta carotene) and also a good source of Vitamin C, manganese, copper, pantothenic acid and vitamin B6. Olive oil has multiple health benefits since it is rich in  linoleic acid [omega-6] and mono-unsaturated fatty acids [MUFA] that helps in lowering LDL or "bad cholesterol" and increases HDL or "good cholesterol" in the blood.

INGREDIENTS:
  • Sweet potato -1 [small]
  • Olive oil - ½ tsp
  • Salt - as per taste 

DIRECTIONS:
Step 1 Preheat the oven to 200°C for 10 minutes. Cut the sweet potato in half lengthwise, and place it flat side down on a   cutting board. Cut the sweet potato halves into 1-inch-wide wedges. Step 2 In a small bowl, combine the oil and salt. Place the sweet potatoes on a roasting pan and brush with the oil mixture. Lay the sweet potatoes on the pan and put the pan in the oven. Step 3 Bake them at 180°C for 15 minutes or until they turn gulden brown. Remove the pan from the oven. Let the fries coul for a bit, and serve warm.
