Ingredients

  • 6 medium Organic Sweet Potatoes unpeeled
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper (fresh)
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • Vegetable Oil for deep frying
  • 6 Scallions trimmed and minced
  • 2 Eggs

Directions

Place the sweet potatoes in a large pot, add 1 teaspoon of salt, and cover with cold water, and bring to a boil. Boil until the potatoes are tender, about 25 minutes. Drain and cool.

Combine the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt with the pepper and flour in a small bowl; set aside. Beat the eggs with 2 tablespoons water. Cut the sweet potatoes in 1/4 inch slices.

Heat the oil in a deep, heavy skillet to 350 degrees on a deep-fry thermometer. Dip eat sweet potato slice in the egg and then in the flour mixture.  Fry them in small batches until they are golden brown, about 5 minutes on each side. Drain the slices on paper towels.

Serve hot, topped with the minced scallions.
