Sweet Potato Fries (baked!)

Yet another recipe with an unknown source....

Ingredients:
2 sweet potatoes, scrubbed and cut into sticks (1/2" thick)
3 egg whites
seasoning (salt and pepper, old bay, etc)
a bit of oil (veggie oil or olive oil)

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450, with racks in this highest positions. Place parchment paper onto 2 baking sheets.
2. Microwave potatoes 2 minutes, stir, then nuke 1-2 minutes more to jump-start the cooking process.
3. Let potatoes rest of 5 minutes
4. Whisk the egg whites until slightly foamy, and toss with the potatoes. This is what will give the fries a crunchy exterior.
5. Rub parchment with some oil, add fries, and sprinkle with your chosen seasoning. Bake for 10 minutes. Flip fries, and return to oven to bake until golden and crispy (about 10 minutes more).

This also works great with regular potatoes! :)
