Sweet Potato Fries with Chipotle Lime Dip

INGREDIENTS:

• 3 to 4 sweet potatoes or yams.
• vegetable oil.
• kosher salt.

     For the Dip:

• 1 1/4 cup mayonnaise.
• Juice from 1/2 a lime.
• 1 teaspoon ground chipotle powder.
• 1/2 teaspoon chili powder.
• 1/4 teaspoon paprika.
• 1/4 teaspoon cumin.
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder.

DIRECTIONS:

• Mix up the chipotle lime dip at least an hour before serving so the spices have a chance to blend together: In a small bowl, mix all the ingredients together and refrigerate.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Cut the sweet potatoes into long sticks and place in a large ziploc bag. Add just enough vegetable oil to lightly coat the potatoes, seal the bag and toss to distribute the oil evenly.
• Evenly layer the potatoes on to a cookie sheet. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, turning often until lightly browned. Remove from oven and sprinkle on kosher salt, to taste.
• Serve with the chipotle lime dip.
