kamote

🥗Healthier: butternut squash

💰Cheaper: regular potatoes

Butternut squash offers a similar sweetness and texture.

Peel and cut kamote into fry shapes.

Soak the cut kamote in water for 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

Drain and pat the kamote dry with paper towels.

In a bowl, toss the kamote with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until evenly coated.

Heat cooking oil in a deep fryer or large pot over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Carefully add the kamote fries to the hot oil in batches, avoiding overcrowding.

Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes.

Use a slotted spoon to remove the fries and drain on paper towels.

Sprinkle with additional salt and fresh herbs if desired.

Serve immediately while hot.
