Recipe View 0 mins Drizzle the warm, spiced butter sauce evenly over the sweet potatoes, ensuring each fry is coated with the delicious glaze. Serve immediately and enjoy!

For best results, use a high-quality vegetable oil with a neutral flavor. Canola or peanut oil work well.
Ensure the oil is at the correct temperature before adding the sweet potatoes; too low, and they will be soggy; too high, and they will burn.
Do not overcrowd the fryer, as this will lower the oil temperature and result in unevenly cooked fries.
For a richer flavor, consider using brown sugar instead of white sugar in the spiced butter sauce.
Serve these fries immediately while they are hot and crispy. They pair well with burgers, sandwiches, or as a sweet side dish on their own.
A pinch of cayenne pepper can be added to the sugar mixture for a subtle kick of heat.
