Fantastic Fries Recipes
Baked Garlic Pepper Polenta Fries
A fries recipe without any potato?! Here, the main ingredient is polenta which essentially is ground cornmeal. It has been used a lot in northern Italy since the 16th century!

Broccoli Stem Fries and Chimichurri Tahini
Who would have thought broccoli stems would make good fries? Well, prepared correctly they are excellent, and this is what this recipe is all about.
In addition to the fries, the dip/drizzle is exquisite and something I can even see myself using as a salad dressing. You have to try this out!

They’re fries Jim, but not as we know them. William Shatner said that, right?

Easy Peri Peri Oven Baked Carrot Fries

Roasted Carrot Fries with Garlic Basil Ketchup
You don’t need to get multicoloured carrots for this recipe although you can, it would be great.

Crispy Panko Crusted Tempeh Fries
This recipe isn’t the quickest and ingredients is divided into several parts. However, overall it’s very simple to make and the outcome is divine!

Loaded Nacho Cheese Fries
Time to get serious!
This is a loaded meal plan comfort food at its finest. The fries are amazing and so are the accompaniments such as jalapeno, sour cream etc.

An excellent dish for when you need that fix when you’re on a health kick.
Just four ingredients (including the green beans) are all you need. The secret is in the two-step instructions.
It’s actually listed as three steps but I’m going to ignore preheating the oven!

I’ve had many sweet potato fries recipes in my time and honestly, this one tops them all.

Harissa Baked Sweet Potato Fries

I think the secret ingredients for me is the cornstarch.
A simple addition that, in itself, doesn’t add any flavor but it creates the perfect texture and somehow brings everything together. You simply have to make this, you won’t regret it!
Cheezy Baked Sweet Potato Smiley Fries
Perfect for the kids, these fries will make everyone smile.
The cheesy flavor comes from nutritional yeast but you have a handful of herbs and spices as well.
You also have chickpea flour which is the hidden gem. If you are unable to source this at your regular supermarket, try any Asian store. Great for parties or the weekend!
