Sweet potato fries can be served as a snack with your favourite dip.

Sweet potato fries are a good way to change things up when the usual potato chips have started to feel a little predictable.

They work just as well alongside a burger or grilled meat as they do piled onto a plate with a dip.

The air fryer also means you can get that roasted, slightly crisp finish without deep-frying the fries in a lot of oil.

The trick is not to rush the preparation. Sweet potatoes contain more moisture than you might expect, so drying them properly before cooking makes a noticeable difference.
