How to Make Fried Sweet Potatoes With Honey

  1. Wash the sweet potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry.
  2. Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into 1-inch chunks. Keep the skin on if desired, but ensure they are thoroughly washed.
  3. Pat the sweet potato chunks dry again with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to remove excess moisture. This helps achieve a crispier result.
  4. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. The oil is ready when a small piece of sweet potato sizzles immediately when added.
  5. Carefully add the sweet potato chunks to the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd it. Fry in batches if necessary.
  6. Fry the sweet potatoes for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and tender. Avoid browning too quickly by adjusting the heat as needed.
  7. Remove the fried sweet potatoes from the skillet and place them on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  8. In a bowl, gently toss the fried sweet potatoes with honey until evenly coated.
  9. Sprinkle the black sesame seeds over the sweet potatoes.
  10. Serve immediately while warm, or allow to cool for a delightful cool treat.
