Instructions
- 1
Peel your sweet potatoes and cut into 1/2-inch thick strips. Soak your cut potatoes in a clean warm water for at least 1 hour to let the starch leech out (that's what makes your fries soggy). Drain off the water and lightly pat dry with paper towel

Get the mixing bowl out and put the potatoes in the bowl. Add in the rice flour, tapioca flour, garlic salt and mix with your hands until the fries are coated. Add in the olive oil and mix again with your hand until they are coated with oil. Spread the fries on the baking sheets. Don't be tempted to crowd the baking sheets or your fries won't be crispy. You may need to bake in batches. Bake for about 20 minutes at 425 F or until the fries are beautifully golden and crispy
