Mix together all dry ingredients first, then add the yogurt and the milk. Need the dough for 5 to 10 minutes until it’s smooth. Then roll into a ball and place in a bowl with a towel over the top and let the dough rise for at least 2 hours. Once the dough has risen, flatten out the dough to knock out the air and roll into a cylinder shape. Cut into equal portions starting with the center, cutting in half and in half again until all portions are equal. Now roll the dough flat into oblong shapes approximately 1/8 of an inch thick. Heat each one in a pan or on a grill set on Med high for 1 minute then turn, if you want to keep it simple. Otherwise cook only one side and put garlic and Coriander on the other side and place under a broiler for a minute to a minute and half. Remove the Naan from the heat and rub with butter and serve warm.
How can I claim that this is, without a doubt, the best Sweet Potato Fries recipe; in short, I can’t. But I can say that, after trying these fries, I couldn’t imagine that they get any better. And one of the things that I’ve, personally, figured out about cooking and eating fried sweet potatoes is that you want to keep it simple. The real secret is in the sauce or in this case sauce’s!
Sauce for Sweet Potato Fries
First off, you may have noticed that my Sweet Potato Fries look like regular French Fries but they’re not. Sweet Potatoes aren’t all orange, they’re white too. And, just to clear the air, Yams and Sweet Potatoes are pretty much the same thing. In all honesty, I think that the orange color in Yams make beautiful fries and I would rather have used them instead for the purpose is of this blog post because I think they’re prettier to look at. But for the same purpose of this post, I intentionally used the white Sweet Potatoes to prove the point that it doesn’t really matter which one you choose to use. Either or, they will both taste the same. And like I already mentioned, the real secret is in the sauce.
I make both a Spicy Mayo and a Barbecue Fry Sauce and in truth, I think you’ll like the Barbecue Fry Sauce the best. By now, the world has become very familiar with the spicy mayo and they’ve already decided whether or not they like it. Plus, if you’re not a fan of spicy food, you’re most likely going to prefer the barbecue. It’s very simple to make and it really compliments the Sweet Potato Fries. And though I didn’t add it to the ingredients list, you might want to add a touch of Sesame Oil. So, definitely give that one a try.
Sweet Potato Fries Ingredients:
1 Sweet Potato, Orange or White
Frying Oil
Season Salt to taste
Pealing the Sweet Potato is optional, but you want to cut the ends off, then slice into 1/4 to 1/2 inch slices. Fry at 350 degrees for 6 to 8 Minutes then place on paper towels. Immediately Salt with Seasoned Salt before the Sweet potato Fries cool down. This allows the seasoning to stick better. For the dipping Sauces, just mix all the ingredients for each one and stir until it’s smooth, then serve your Sweet Potato Fries.
All of the ingredients are designed to pack a wallop of nutrition and explode with flavor. It’s got Onions, Peppers, Tomatoes, Avocado, Cucumber and a list of other seasoning’s and ingredients you’re going to love. You can serve this with chips, eat it plain as a salad, serve as a Tostada or, my favorite, as a Cocktail in a glass with Clamato!
Shrimp Ceviche can, technically, be made with vegetables only but traditionally it’s made with either Tilapia or Shrimp. The secret is cook the meat in the citric acid of freshly squeezed Lemon and Limes. I find this method very effective with the fish but I find that it makes the shrimp a little pasty and less pleasant to eat. So I like to steam my shrimp before I marinade it in the juice. I get a ton flack from Hispanics that see me do it this way in the video but the results turn out virtually the same. The texture of the shrimp is better and the flavor of the Lemon and Lime marinade is forever present because the citrus is so potent. Therefore, trust me with the steaming in this recipe and enjoy your Shrimp Ceviche!
Shrimp Ceviche Ingredients:
1 pound raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 lemons
2 limes
1/4 cup Orange Juice
1 cucumber, chopped
1/2 Onion, chopped
1/2 Jalapeno Pepper, diced (optional)
1 cup Tomato, diced
1 Avocado, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces
1 tbsp Cilantro, chopped
2 tbsp Olive Oil
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
Clamato Juice (optional)
Tabasco Sauce (optional)
Steam Shrimp for 1 minute then remove and place in a bowl. Then add the Lemon, Lime and Orange juice, stir and let it marinade for 20 minutes. Chop all the remaining ingredients and combine in a separate bowl. Add the Salt and Pepper, then stir. Strain the Shrimp but add 1/4 cup of the juice to the vegetable bowl and add the shrimp, then stir. Serve Shrimp Ceviche with Tostada Shells, Corn Chips or in a Glass With Clamato over the top.
