Low Fat Sweet Potato Fries (Indian Style)

Low fat sweet potato fries (Indian Style) is one of my favorite side dish. Whenever I go for weekly vegetable shopping, I used to buy sweet potato without fail.  Sweet potatoes are very good for our health as they are very rich in minerals like potassium, iron, magnesium and vitamins like A, B6 and D. In US, sweet potatoes in markets are very bigger in size when compare to India. In this recipe, I used only 2 big sweet potatoes. You can also make sweet potato fries like french fries by deep frying them in oil . But instead of deep frying, I chose pan frying. I mixed all the masalas (spice powders), curd and sweet potato in a bowl, then i pan roasted them with less oil. It tastes awesome with sambar rice or dal rice or even good with chapathi. Also check my  sweet potato fry recipe (sakkaraivalli kizhangu varuval)
