Sweet Potato Fries

I've always loved french fries. As a kid I was perfectly happy with the bread basket and a side order of fries... probably not the healthiest, but so yummy! Here's a nutritious and delicious take on french fries.

Sweet Potato Fries:
1 large sweet potato
1 onion
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 clove garlic
1/4 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp basil
1/2 tsp sea salt
pepper

Peel sweet potato and cut into 'fries' or cubes (depending how you like them). Boil for 5 minutes.
Cut onion into large chunks (if you make them too small they'll burn).

Mix together remaining ingredients and pour over potatoes and onion. Mix well before distributing them evenly on a cookie sheet.

Preheat oven at 350 degrees. Bake for 10 minutes, flip them, bake another 10 minutes.
Optional sauces: Ketchup, HP or Vegenaise.
