Making a Dip for Sweet Potato Fries
The dip is easy to mix up while your fries are baking. It’s plain yogurt, a drizzle of honey and a squeeze of lime juice and some herbs and seasoning.
Serving Sweet Potato Fries
You’ll want to serve baked sweet potato fries immediately after baking. They will cool quickly and just won’t be as great. That being said, if you have leftovers, chop them up and store them in the fridge. They’re great for tossing on salads later!

Questions & Reviews
I made these for Thanksgiving 2008 and they were delish! My friend HoneyB sent me to your link! Awesome! Thanks!
omg.
one word.
YUM!
thanks for posting this. we had some sp fries in the freezer that we thought were kinda blah. I made your dip (ok miracle whip and maple syrup instead of mayo and honey) but we loved it. polished off that bag of fries and now gonna make your recipe.
My sister-in-law turned me on to this site and I love it so far!
She brought the honey lime dip from this recipe over to my house the other day and I made sauteed tilapia and we drizzled the dip on top and it was EXCELLENT! Give it a try, you won't be sorry!
i love sweet potatoes, i usually bake them add butter and cinnamon! i wanted to try the fries and now that i have an easy recipe i will make them tomorrow!
Una- a few things:
-make sure your fries aren't touching each other and that you don't have two pans on racks right next to each other or they will steam.
-cut them small and thin. The thicker they are the higher the chance they'll turn out mushy
-bake them longer. My guess is that they were underbaked. Even if you baked them as long as the recipe says, extend the time if they are still soft on the outside.
Also keep in mind that no matter what you do, a sweet potato fry will generally always be softer than a regular potato fry
I made these tonight and they turned out mushy. I was waiting for them to get crispy but it didn't happen. I ended up broiling them at the end and that helped a little bit. Any tips for getting them crispy? I cannot figure out where I went wrong with this one & I am desperate to figure it out because I love sweet potato fries. Thanks for the help.
So, I came to the site today to review the Diner-Style Fries recipe so that I could make them for dinner tonight and the Sweet Potato Fry Lover in me has taken over. I'll be making these TONIGHT! 😉 Guess I just use that bag of russets for mashed potatoes next week.
Oh boy, SP fries and lime dip HERE WE COME! YUUUMMMMYYY!!!
we are not sweet potato fans in our family–but we are wanting E to try more veggies, so we gave these a try! We all loved them! We'll definitely make them again! And next time I'll have to make the dip for me (the boys all use ketchup).
Hubby asked for SP fries for Thanksgiving. This looks fantastic! Thanks for posting.

I made these over the weekend and they were excellent! I didn't use cumin & coriander because I was out and they didn't get crispy but they were still delicious!
I just made these last night and they were wonderful! Super easy and SO good! Thank you for the recipe!
i'm trying yams AND sweet potatoes right now. the guy in the produce aisle said the white ones were DEFINITELY sweet potatoes, and the orange ones were yams. but i remembered the orange in your photos and got both. he said in the south they call yams sweet potatoes?!? craaazy. we'll see how they BOTH turn out!
Oh those look so good! I've tried several times to make sweet potato fries and they ALWAYS end up soggy or burnt. Now I know the trick! found you by googling 'Sweet potato fries' and yours was first!
going to try this evening. Thanks for the pictures & step by step!
Thanks for the yummy recipe. My family loved them. I especially appreciated the detailed directions and pics.
I found your site googling for something to do with these two sweet potatoes that have been sitting in my fridge for a week. I'm glad I did!
This recipe was amazing, and the flavors you selected mingled so well together. Thank you for this excellent knowledge, you're definitely getting added to my bookmarks 🙂
I found this recipe when I "googled" sweet potato fries…and I am thrilled to find this amazing looking recipe and very cool site. The step-by-step, beautiful photos and funny preludes to the recipes really make this site a cut above the rest. I am hooked!
I was going to avoid the grocery store today but now I want sweet potato fries!!
I always have a hard time getting them crispy on the outside, I guess I'm steaming them? I'll have to give your meathod a try! YUM
crafty lass- what color are they? White? You may have a mis-labeled yam on your hands!
Read the 2nd paragraph in this post for some info: https://ourbestbites.com/2008/11/candied-coconut-topped-sweet-potatoes
sweet potatoes or yams? i bought sweet potatoes(labeled as such) they are not orange like that? what have i got?
i love sweet potatoe fries from mcmenamins too! (hard to get sometimes)
These fries look amazing! I learned a trick from cooking light where you pour hot water over the sliced up potatoes and let them site for 10 minutes before you bake them… it totally helped the texture! Not the best picture on this post but here you go!

Those look great! Thanks for sharing the recipe.
Great looking sweet potato fries!
Very, very nice recipe. We don’t use sweet potatoes much in Denmark – used ordinary potatoes – and oh it was goooood 🙂

How yum were these! We made two versions, one following your recipe and the other adding a little garlic love. Both were equally good, but the garlic gives just an additional kick.
Two thumbs up!
Found you via Tastespotting. These look delicious! : )
OK – I think I love you!! Ha Ha – I have wanted to try these again as I was not a big fan of the fry thing and my first baked attempt… well did not work so well. It must have been my irregular sizes…. Great dipping sauce as well !!
They look perfect! Mine always come out a bit charred.
YUM. These were soooo good and my son loved them as well.
I threw my potatoes, olive oil and herbs into a big Ziplock bag and just massaged the whole thing until the potatoes were coated. No oily hands and no dish to wash!
I’ll definitely be making these again. I didn’t even use/need the dip they were soooo good!
I LOVE sweet potatoes! I was planning on making one tomorrow but I might have to make fries instead!
