Grilled Sweet Potato Fries Food

GRILLED SWEET POTATO FRIES

Steps:

• Place the whole potatoes in a large pot of cold water. Add 2 tablespoons salt, then bring to a gentle boil. Let boil until the potatoes are tender, but still quite firm, about 10 to 15 minutes. You should be able to pierce them with a fork somewhat easily, but the potatoes should still be too firm too eat. Drain and let cool slightly. Heat the grill to medium (about 400 degrees F).
• Slice each potato in half lengthwise, then slice each half into 4 to 6 wedges, depending on the size. Each wedge should be about 1/3 inch thick. As you slice the potatoes, peel off their skins (they should come off easily). Place the wedges in a bowl, then drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with brown sugar, chipotle chile pepper, and the remaining 1 teaspoon salt. Toss to coat.
• Grill the sweet potato fries on each side until they're lightly golden brown, have some grill marks (depending upon your preference) and are tender, about 6 minutes total. Remove to a serving platter. Enjoy hot, sprinkled with cilantro as desired.

GRILLED SWEET POTATO FRIES WITH HONEY-MUSTARD-MINT DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Whisk together the Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, honey and mint in a bowl, and season with salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature while you prepare the fries.
• Put the sweet potatoes in a large pot, cover with water and add 1 tablespoon salt. Bring to a boil and cook until a paring knife inserted into the center of the potatoes meets with some resistance, 10 to 15 minutes depending on size. When cool enough to handle, cut each sweet potato into 6 wedges.
• Heat a gas or charcoal grill to medium-high. Brush the potato wedges with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until slightly charred and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove to a platter and serve with the dipping sauce.
